When You See Your Doctor

A health history is important in diagnosis. Your doctor may ask questions about your snoring pattern, how you feel during the day, your general health and any medications you may be using. A physical exam may be done to check for features that can cause a narrow airway, such as enlarged tonsils, a large neck size or an unusual jaw position. Blood tests can help rule out other health conditions. Your physician may also recommend sleep studies. You will need a doctor's order to have a sleep study at one of Vista Health's Sleep Disorders Centers.
