[QUOTE="scratch, post: 5868268, member: 1674"] This is in Australia, I hope it works and gets approved over here. Sleep Apnea is caused by your tongue relaxing when you fall asleep and your windpipe is blocked off so you wake up over a hundred times a night. I'm on a C-Pap machine, I had to be compliant if I wanted my DOT card when I was working. The quack doctors at the company's clinic started measuring necks during DOT exams a few years back so you have to get a sleep study done before they will sign a DOT card. I'm sure it will be lobbied against by the medical device companies. Hopefully Big Pharma will out bribe them. [/QUOTE]
