Comments on: Are Dr.’s over diagnosing sleep apnea to increase the profits of CPAP machine manufacturers? http://sleepapneatreatmenttips.com/are-dr-s-over-diagnosing-sleep-apnea-to-increase-the-profits-of-cpap-machine-manufacturers/ How To Cure Sleep Apnea & Snoring Problems To Ensure Quality Sleep Sat, 12 Jun 2010 14:32:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Cheryl S http://sleepapneatreatmenttips.com/are-dr-s-over-diagnosing-sleep-apnea-to-increase-the-profits-of-cpap-machine-manufacturers/comment-page-1/#comment-2723 Cheryl S Mon, 15 Mar 2010 04:27:19 +0000 http://sleepapneatreatmenttips.com/are-dr-s-over-diagnosing-sleep-apnea-to-increase-the-profits-of-cpap-machine-manufacturers/#comment-2723 Well, without being too specific, I have a relative who worked his entire life for a pharmaceutical manufacturer. The funding for research he was doing in the early eighties was mysteriously pulled when they were very close to finding a cure for asthma. Naturally the company was a major manufacturer of asthma medications. Hmmm.....cure = no more profit. I think there are many companies/people in healthcare that are very suspect. ALWAYS get a second opinion, or maybe ask a holistic professional just to get another viewpoint. **************************** Edit: In view of your additional comments, it seems three opinions would warrant biting the bullet and trying the CPAP. My ex-husband (snoring was a contributing factor in our divorce) was diagosed after he remarried and loves his CPAP, if that helps.

Things can be rotten sometimes. What you suspect is probably true, sad but it is a possibility that they are getting a percentage or commission. Things can be rotten sometimes.
