Sleep Apnea on Little People Big World

Post by Pad A Cheek » Tue Oct 21, 2008 5:51 am

I just caught a little piece of a commercial on TLC for the next broadcast of Little People Big World, and Matt was being hooked up to a CPAP. I think they said it is to air on Monday, but as I said I only caught a short bit of it, and I was not really "watching TV"

I think it will be a great piece, I plan on watching it.
Just wanted everyone that wants to watch to know about it.

Yep, he was diagnosed last year and they showed the sleep study(or parts of it anyway). Should be interesting to watch!

will have to remember to watch this show and see what they have to say about OSA. I just watched a show on monday night called mystery er and it was about a guy that was having heart problems and the medicine wasn't helping him and a friend told him to get a sleep study and his heart problems went a way after getting on cpap. It was very interesting.

I posted an invite on the show's website last year telling Matt he should join us here. I think he's too busy spending all that reality TV dough remodelling his house to log on.

Cheers,
B.

Who knows..maybe this 'public profile' will help others, and that in itself will
make this a beautiful thing.

I am going to my cardiologist tomorrow to have an ekg to see if using the cpap has helped my atril-fib . I will post what the doc says about if it is any better. We have been trying for almost 4 years to get it under control fully. So far the meds wont't make it go totally away. That is my heart races all the time. Melinda
