Moderator broncovet Posted August 27, 2018 Moderator Share Posted August 27, 2018 Congratulations! Would you care to share your method of getting SC for sleep apnea? I tried to get my sleep apnea SC for about the last 6 years. A deal breaker is that my c and p examiner opined negatively. (She had no sleeep medicine experience.)

SpaceAce54 Posted August 28, 2018 Author Share Posted August 28, 2018 Hello broncovet I had a couple of buddy letters stating how loud I snored when I was in service. Also had a great IMO from a Harvard PHD. sleep expert who has been working in the field for 30+ years testing Military Pilots, NASA personnel etc. The Dr. also listed 6 secondary problems with explanations, so I just filed for them as secondary this week. If you would like the contact info email me. Also I was discharged in 1975. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
