    I took an at home study a few months ago and it was just one uncomfortable finger sensor?

      Yea, I did one of those too, but it didn’t pick anything up, so I had to go in.

        I had the same experience, my doctor told me the home ones are often worthless but insurance companies like to make you try them before approving a sleep lab because it’s cheaper.

      I had that, six sensors on my skull, a nasal air sensor, two leg sensors, a stomach and heart sensor, jaw, chin and eye sensors as well as two chest expansion sensors, all wired to a data logger that was hung around my neck and took as much space as a cat sitting on my chest.

        For me, the machine was on a table beside the bed at least.
