Feeling upset and confused
Today I went to the ENT specialist who has said he is almost certain I have sleep apnoea. I shall spend tonight wired up to machines to confirm then it's off to Oxford for a CPap machine. This has left me in a bit of a quandary because this doc says the symptoms that have been put down to APS could be

Partial Update
So I did that last sleep study with the PES (long story short, they put a tube up your nose, down your throat, and into your chest and inflate a balloon at the end of it to measure air pressure) and it didn't show UARS (upper airway restriction syndrome), but it did show obstructed sleep apnea. So I

Update
I saw the university specialist on friday. She wants to give me oxycontin. But first, she wants me to do another sleep study with esophageal pressure monitoring (*cringe*) to make sure I don't have sleep apnea. If I don't, medicine prescribed, no problem. If I do, she wants to put me on a cpap and then

Strange night !
On top of my COPD I have been diagnosed with Obstructive Sleep Apnea, according to the sleep study I recently had I " stop breathing" on average 18 times an hour! Well yesterday I went to the hospital to be fitted with a CPAP machine. Last night was my first night of using it, can't say I had a good

CPap machine
I was diagnosed with COPD 5 years ago whilst still working and sleeping so badly I could hardly stay awake at my desk. I was given a CPap machine by the Brompton hospital and have never looked back really. Apparently my oxygen levels drop so low during the night that I keep waking up in a panic although

Some additions to the diagnosis. Anyone else?
I have been to get the results of my sleep study today and apparently I have sleep apnea and restless legs syndrome. Hmmm news to me! I had no idea, I slept through the whole thing! hahah. So I wondered how common these two are along with autoimmune arthritis diseases? Apparently they will review me

Insomnia and sleep apnea
Having sleep apnea and unable to tolerate Cpap and insomnia that is getting worse over decade, is there any good sleep medicine that people with sinemet ER and domperdone use? Mirtazapine did not help and zolpidem is getting less effective every day

Try CPAP therapy
I posted a couple of months ago that I had Botox therapy and sadly this didn't do much for me. So I dug in deep and went for a sleep apnea test. I was diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea, issued a CPAP machine and chose the Wisp mask, which is not a full facial mask. Right out of the shute I noticed

It's My 55th Birthday...Do You Believe it?
I don't! My body feels it but my spirit remains youthful. It's been THE year of years. Precisely at this time last year, I was beginning the process of my neuro-psyche test following a summer of neurological testing. It was early August I received my PSP diagnosis. Tho I knew something was quite wrong

CPAP THERAPY FOR OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA AND MANUKA HONEY
Hello everyone, I was wondering if there were many of us here with Obstructive Sleep Apnea? I recieved a letter last week telling me I had it and I am to attend an appointment at the sleep clinic on Thursday concerning CPAP treatment. A leaflet was meant to be in the letter but I think they must have

Are there any treatments for RLS that work but don't cause daytime tiredness as a side-effect?
I seem to've developed daytime tiredness a lot recently. Although also suffering from sleep apnoea, that is treated by a CPAP machine. I suspect the cause could be a side effect of the pramipexole I am taking for RLS. I've tried ropinerole and the Patch but didn't get on well with them. Does anyone else
