Thanks, Bigmike52 & Sierra, very much appreciated information. I scored 4 points on the STOP-BANG test. GP mentioned a sleep study but no details on home vs lab. What would you recommend? Seems that I really need to do something about it.

Hi everybody, I am new to the forum. I am male, 49 yrs old, hypertension, overweight, snoring, often tired. My GP told me that I have sleep apnea and that I should check out some breathing masks. Any advice. Thanks in advance
