He should consider running some overnight pulse oximeter tests. If those are ok, he needs to look elsewhere because it otherwise appears the
therapy is definitely working.
Not exactly; I feel like shit today. That's why I wasn't excited about such a low score; I know from experience that these things are hit and miss.
The therapy works 100% of the time if you do your part. It is working for you and apparently there's other stuff going on with you.

I wrote my question as to the type of work that you do as it may have some relevance. Also suggested pulse oximeter studies, perhaps you are hypoxic with the therapy. You seem to be 'he*l-bent' on the therapy not working when it is...at least by your numbers.

Suggest that you do see a doctor very soon.

Best wishes and good luck!

I can assure you I'm not "hell bent" on it not working. A person of my means doesn't spend over a thousand dollars in equipment, doctor's visits, tests and technology if he's "hell bent" on something not working.
