Last week I reviewed the results with my doctor, O2 levels bottomed out at 71% and scored 8/24 with 20 apnea episodes during overnight study. The diagnoses is "airway...

Hybrid Sleep Position by Sir Noddin Off
Hi Everyone As this thread no longer is about the original subject, I have re-titled it to reflect what it is now about, and to make sure that those interested in the Hybrid Sleep Position do not confuse it with anything else, and those interested in positional therapy for sleep apnea do not confuse...
