you are again mistaken, it is the machine that is falsely tagging normal breathing events while awake as apneas.
You, as usual, are flat out wrong. Not breathing, simple to detect, apnea.

However, it's not *sleep* apnea.

Just go back and crawl into your bottle, the forum was much nicer when you were over tormenting apneabored.

obviously it is not sleep apnea if the person is awake, unfortunately the machine can't tell this and tags normal awake events as apnea.
