    the "sleep dentist" that the sleep center sent me to after the dx has made no mention of anything being structurally abnormal.

  2. Next steps advice

    my neck has never been that large. my max weight was 210ish. I have lost 40lb sinc Oct 1 when I started fixing things wrong with me. I use an oral bite guard device, not a cpap.

    tried to pm. mailbox full.

  4. Feeling tired after waking up

    provigil helps with the tired symptom, but does nothing for the problem. i need both. like a broken arm... vicodin can get rid of the pain, but you still need the cast. hopefully once the cast is off, you can stop the drugs. i HATE taking meds.

After getting bloodwork and starting on provigil, some of the sleep deprivation issues have cleared up, but I still have...

  11. Dr. In Maryland?

    Same boat here. Looking for help in MD. When you said "Cleared", I hoped that meant that you were flagged that we could contact you. Sucks to type the PM, THEN get rejected for low post count.
