The worst thing is I could of been like this for years... I was always falling asleep ... Even when I was driving. It was horrendous looking back to it now.. Just glad I've got my Cpap!

Andy , did you ask for your test or was it part of your pre op process ?
I suspected & asked , although I don't know how often I woke cos my results were told me in oxygen percentage .... as low as 35% !!

I actually asked for my test...but my wife suspected something because she had to keep waking me up and try to force my mouth open at times to get me to breathe...I actually downloaded an app on my iphone which is called sleep talk...it is meant to be a jokey type app where you set it at night,and when there is any noise,it records it and you can play it back in the morning...i used it to record my breathing,or should i say lack of it, and listened to it in the morning...and i have to say the noises i was making were awful

35% ...thought mine were bad at 51%

Hope you're okay...keep in touch
