But then when a couple months later I did an overnight oximetry test on my cpap, my doctor recommended I start on oxygen bled into my cpap as well. What was your AHI the night you did the oximetry test? You do know that when using CPAP you could still be having apneas if the pressure settings are n...

Because last year I was told when I went in for a hernia surgery that my low SpO2 during the day was a sign of possible OSA. Some smart surgeons and anesthesiologists are watching for their patients to stop breathing during surgery. If they see it, they later alert the patient that he might have OS...

Jay, Like we have said, while youre using supplemental O2, that increase in oxygen that is floating around in your blood will only be there for about 10 or so minutes until the levels drop back down to normal (what your lungs are capable of maintaining unassisted). But CPAP is incredibly efficient ...

So... can OSA impact SpO2 level during the day? Because last year I was told when I went in for a hernia surgery that my low SpO2 during the day was a sign of possible OSA. That is what inspired me to see my Doctor about a sleep study and lead me to be a cpap user. If that was true and OSA does nega...

Glad to hear of your improvement. When I measure my SpO2 levels during the day (where I was averaging about 91%) they seem to be around 97%. The use of supplemental oxygen/CPAP at night has no effect on SpO2 levels during the day. Thanks. Guess it must be a temporary fluke. As I mentioned, I only j...

My experience with the system that lead me here has been less than awesome but I'll save that long story for another time. Since my Oxygen...
