My BMI is 34, being treated for high blood pressure, but tested at 120/80, and my neck is 18”, and I’m over 42 years old (58)
My “condition” checks over three items needed to be referred to sleep apnea testing I’m told.
They also just so happen to have a convenient take home test available from a partner for only $249.
I’m 6’4 280lbs.
To say that I’m upset that this Chiropractor, with his limited knowledge has the ability to destroy my livelihood is unreal.
Please learn from my mistake and go to a medical facility that you are familiar with and has a good reputation, not just convenient like I did.
I have 3 months to have a sleep study completed or get a second opinion from another Dr.
If I do nothing, my lisc. will be invalid do to no medical certification.

Everyone should also heavily consider there is also nothing better (but also nothing more difficult) than Loosing weight. It is always a good thing. The health and food systems in place in America is specifically designed to keep you over-weight, have high blood pressure, deprived of sleep, fat, lazy, lethargic, a pill for everything, and to feel "falsely-empowered", "me me me", "I deserve", "I, me and myself", brainwashed, brainstamped, etc. like no other place on earth. This is from birth till death. - We are the country with the poorest nutrition, highest sugar, highest fat, worst health, perpetually sickest, designed around lazyness, marketed bulls%it on the planet.
