Finally, AHI under 5!!

Post by IWannaSleep » Fri May 27, 2005 10:15 am

I finally had a night where my AHI, as recorded, was 4.5 for the entire night. Some hours I had 0 events recorded. This number actually is better because I believe my machine registers false Obstructive Apneas as I'm falling asleep, and again when I'm waking up as most of them are bunched in the first hour and the last hour of use. I think my breathing pattern must be in transistion during those times. I know I sometimes catch myself holding my breath.

In any case YAYYYY! Hopefully I'll begin feeling better soon. My last Oxymetry test showed no desats, so that problem was resolved even when my machine was reporting my AHI to be much higher (another reason I suspect false apneas being registered).
