Sleep Apnea / C-PAP

Dec 26, 2006

I had my consult with my pulmonologist today...I definately have sleep apnea...in fact, I have 73 apneas (where I stop breathing) an hour! They ordered me a CPAP machine but I am hoping it is only temporary and that after my surgery I wont need it.  And I am looking forward to some good sleep...I am EXHAUSTED!!! :-)

I finally filled out my "story" so I am beginning to figure this all out.  Last night was my sleep study and I definately have sleep apnea...but that test was awful!  Not painful or anything but very hard with all those wires and attachments. Even though the c-pap machine definately made a difference, I am exhausted today.   They said that the report will be done in about 2-3 weeks, just in time to see my surgeon.  I will post pictures when I have a chance to get some taken and uploaded.
