@santosh099 the 30 min EEG I was recommended to be sleep deprived. The 48 hr at home I asked about stopping the med she said no still take the medication and as far as my CPAP which I use the nostril mask she said if it gets in the way then just don’t use it. I would think I wouldn’t take the meds to try and see if anything happens and my sleep apnea is pretty bad at times. It starts at a 6 and goes to 17 for my episodes so it’s just a hot mess for sure. So do I stop the med day before the at home test or just continue

Hi @crissyh76
My advice would be to follow your doctor's instructions for the exam. If she's recommended continuing your medications, it's because reducing or stopping them outside of a hospital setting isn't safe.
The only time I've had my medication adjusted for an EEG was during a video EEG monitoring at the hospital, where I was under constant medical supervision.
Please stay safe!
