Sleep Test Results. Need adivce.
Hi everyone,
I recently took a home sleep test from Lofta and I'm looking for some advice. I'm a 20 year old male, normal weight, don't drink or smoke, and have hypothyroidism that I'm treating. My symptoms are brain fog, fatigue, difficulty sleeping, anxiety, OCD, derealization, panic attacks and unexplained high blood pressure and heart rate that I've seen multiple cardiologists for.
My non-REM sleep numbers aren't terrible, but my REM sleep seems to be much worse.
From my research, it seems like doctors primarily focus on the AHI instead of RDI, but my RDI is much higher than my AHI, what are the chances insurance will cover treatment based on my numbers? If they don't, would it be worth investing in a $1000 CPAP machine? Has anyone with similar numbers and symptoms started treatment, and did it improve your quality of life?
I really need guidance, so any advice would be greatly appreciated!
