9 apnoeas last nite

Post by mummy2hollyandmatthew » Fri Oct 28, 2005 4:50 am

title says it all really, last nite at 11.30pm matthew had his first Apnoea in 3 days, alarm went off after 20 seconds, waited he wasnt correcting himself so i gave him a poke and he was ok, stood there, and 2 minutes he done the same again, again he needed poking to get him bretahing again, so i stood there and he had another 2, so that was 4 in the space of 10 minutes

11.40 to 11.55 matthew had another 5, but luckily didnt need stimulating, the alarm went off, by the time i got out of bed to the door he had started bretahing again and the alarm picked up this happened 5 times so 9 in the space of 25 minutes, and was fine after that,

but i couldnt sleep, i kept worrying that the alarm wouldnt pick him so i kept going in there checking on him

we still dont have a date for the MRI, i called the neuro nurse and shes gonna chase it up for me, so hoping to hear from her soon

i only said last nite to my hubby that matthew has gone 3 night without any i must stop saying things as i seem to jinx myself

natalie and matthew (central sleep apnoea)

Natalie - forgive me for not responding sooner. I missed your post and was just wondering how things were going with you and little Matthew. I hope by now you have some more answers. Please post and let us know how things are going for you.
