> Are you an RN also as I also subscribe to same newsletter and need my license number to get the info. Seems like sleep studies are being used more to dianose psychiatric problems. Will check my newsletter and see if I have the study also. thanks Phillipa
No, not an RN or any other medical person. I was just told I have UARS and that it preceded my OSA and I did a google search on UARS and came up with that Medscape article. Figured Id warn others about UARS and its relationship to poor sleep and psychiatric issues.
I have been periodically reading Medscape articles for years...I never was told you had to be a medical professional to use it. Its for anybody. With the way the medical profession is these days and with managed care health insurance, you have to do about half the work yourself anyway, so WTF?
