Teri, I live at 5000 ft altitude near Denver... so you're saying the sleep study may not be comparable between an at-home sleep study vs an in-lab sleep study? That's quite interesting! I'll talk with my pulmonologist about that. Thanks!

I live at higher altitude in the Sleep study lab. Therefore my sleep study lab did not show my need for oxygen as did my home study. I think it depends on where you live and where the lab is located. We actually threw out my whole Sleep labs study.

That's an interesting point that I never would have considered. I live in Maricopa County in Arizona where everybody and every facility in the county is at the same low altitude...all very PH friendly.

If your insurance will cover the in-lab study, do that. Some insurance will want a home test done first. But those aren't as reliable.
