[QUOTE="scratch, post: 1186575, member: 1674"] Well, I struck out on my plan with my dentist on getting the oral appliance made. I used up my insurance money for the year so I will have to wait until January 1st if I want to go that route. He said that sleep apnea falls under medical instead of dental when his office called Central States, although he could make the mouthpiece which is the same one used to treat TMJ. I go to my regular doctor for my hypertension in eight days, so I will discuss it with him. Often sleep apnea causes high blood pressure, a lot of people can come off their medicine if they can get proper sleep. In my wife's case, the pulmonary specialist she went to said the sleep apnea causes her to have too many red blood cells because of a lack of oxygen, so she will probably be able to come off meds if she gets a C-PAP machine.
