| Ok the results of my dh apnea test are in!!! It seems that he has these episodes of not breathing 79 times in 1 hour . That is pretty scary. He is scheduled to go back to the clinic for his next appt on June 25. They will fit him for the machine and do all the adjustments. Then they will order the machine. This paperwork with all the numbers on it is a bit confusing but that is the jist of it.

| Oh my how scary is that. My DH has apnea too I think and I can't talk him into going to a sleep clinic. He wakes me up at least twice a week gasping. I have to shake him to get him to breath. I hope everything works out good with the machine. Keep us posted on how he does with it.

| I think that's even a little higher than my hubby's test results years ago (I think his was 60-something). Not good! My husband finally went in for testing after he had an episode that scared the cr@p out of him. He thought someone was smothering him in his sleep and he came up out of bed so fast - literally from a laying down position straight to standing beside the bed. That scared him enough. He's not the best about using it every night though because of his allergies. If he's congested, it's not the most comfy thing to wear. It definitely has made his life better though. Good luck with the machine!
