I wondered the same thing when the sleep doctor offered me ambien and said it would not skew the test. He seems like a smart guy and has been doing this for many years so I trust that he’s right.

Doctors in the US ( …
Doctors in the US (as everywhere else) cannot refuse treatment to people, the government picks up the tab one way or the other, you’re already paying for it, and all the Insurance Companies are profiteering from it. Some things are above profit, Health Care is one of them.

Thats why Americas healthcare is . A national health service wouldn’t really cost you more. Your employer could contribute the cost cents a week. Anyone who is unemplyed would be covered automaticly. The problem with your current system is it’s not run by the government. Instead your leaders take bribes from lobbyists while Americans get told that there insurance won’t cover there sickness..
My sisters life was saved by an experimental operation had we been american we would be bankrupted.

Playing the didgeridoo has helped me and they didn’t mention that research on the show. I love it and I’m getting good at it now. Much less sleepy during the day. There is a fun yet educational video on my “Crazy Cures” channel.

No thanks …
No thanks claudis192, I would rather demand to keep my money! There’s no such thing as free health care. The last thing in the world I want is government-controlled healthcare. We should take to the streets to demand that the 16th ammendment be repealed and the IRS building turned into a parking lot.

I know a girl who the only reason she has this disorder is BECAUSE shes so fat. And her parents cant see thats why she has it and they’re not making her lose weight at all. Plus its fairly obvious her mask thingy isnt working, she’s a total psycho-bitch to everyone around her and blames her behavior AND weight on her apnea. ergh. People can be so ignorant.

Ditto, Canadian health care has long waiting lines and subpar care. That’s why you flock to US when you need serious care:)
