I recently had a sleep study and it took me five hours to enter the REM phase (it is supposed to take a person 90 minutes). Does anyone have any suggestions as to why or what could be the problem. Please any info will help. thanks

My study said I never entered REM. All they did was change my medication. They never rechecked it to see if things improved.

Originally I was scheduled for a split study. However, I am now having to go back for a second night. My understanding is that I never reached REM sleep. It will not be til after I go back that the MD and I will discuss treatment options.
