My MS doc at the VA wanted me to get a sleep study a year ago. It took many months just to get a date/appointment. Today I got a notice in the mail that my mid Jan sleep clinic apt had been canceled and a number to call to re-schedule.
That apt was at the Detroit VA twice as far away as my Ann Arbor VAMC. I was not thrilled about them wanting it done in Detroit instead of AA, they do do sleep studies there as well, I asked.
No surprise, waiting many months only to have an apt canceled is a common occurrence here.
For change, this time I am glad they canceled it, saves me the trouble of calling and canceling. I was able to get the sleep study done at the local hospital. They also found another unrelated issue from the study beside OSA that the local doc wants me to bring up with my MS doc at the VA. I also need to get a copy of the APAP script & study note (from sleep doc about PLM) for my MS doc.
