Composing questions for Pulmonary doctor appt. tomorrow.

Post by op » Tue Nov 15, 2005 10:13 am

I have recently gone back to CPAP because an Oxymeter test showed over 200 oxygen drops below 90%, once going below 70%.
Having a battle with the CPAP and waking unrested. Using heated humidifier, but still waking every couple of hrs all dried out.
Help me out with questions to ask doc tomorrow.

HI OP,

Are you using a humdifier and a full face mask? You sound like you are mouth breathing.
