Sleep Study Consultation. What should I say/ask for?

Advice for Me

Hey everyone! So I’m geared up for Double Jaw Surgery within the next year or so. In braces now, surgery was deemed not medically necessary, but haven’t gotten a sleep study done so not sure if anything in that realm might be applicable.

I got a referral from my doctor to see a sleep specialist and I’m not sure what I should say. I don’t really want to say “I want my jaw surgery to be fully covered” so I guess I want to know what I should tell them and ask for. I think a few family members have undiagnosed sleep apnea and I can be a bit of a mouth breather/sleeper at times. Should I tell them that I want to test for sleep apnea and UARS? Thanks in advance!
