In the US, I went in for a sleep study and had to fight for it. "You're not obese or old" yes but both my parents (admittedly old, but not obese) have CPAPs, and my wife says I stop breathing at night. "Are you sure?" Well, sir, that's why I would like to do a study.
I had an overnight sleep study scheduled several weeks later, during which time my insurance provider at work changed, and I had to do the process again, and this time only got a take home kit, and just missed the criteria for getting a CPAP.
Years later I went looking for alternate routes, which means paying out of pocket for a CPAP and accessories... But sleeping better and being more healthy.
