Why is your local sleep clinic not supplying you with one? You need to be monitored whilst using one. One place to purchase if you really need to is: hope2sleep.com

Hi rememdium, I was also just wondering why you weren't being supplied a CPAP machine by the hospital/sleep clinic. I presume you have been diagnosed with sleep apnea by the hospital, if not who did the tests for you? June

Did you have the overnight test done for Sleep Apnea, either at home or in the sleep clinic then or is the report saying a likelihood of the condition; either way you should follow it up with your doctor. What severity is your Apnea? June

Sorry rvi just done a search; I'm guessing it's Royal Victoria Hospital, I thought it was some other type of respiratory test; still give us some idea of test you had!  The CPAP and other parts that are used alongside are really expensive and masks should be fitted by the specialist nurses, otherwise it could cost you hundreds of pounds.
