#3.  I feel like I cannot exhale against the pressure, what can I do?

#4. Do I have any options if I cannot tolerate the pressure during inhalation and exhalation?

    I do appreciate your active interest in those you wish to help. However, since I have too little oxygen (hypopneas), I do intend to listen in but fall asleep, forget. Quality of Life could be better but strong Scottish stock and stubborn character….!
    I refused meds for Parkinsons/Epilepsy in 1993 (f I do not have P/E why take it) and was Rx’d imovane on relinquishing the CPAP – half only a few days………….
    I am way past your help because my second specialist(2006?) ruled out OAS (4 only). I call it “central” sleep apnea………?
    At 82 I am still having legal discussions in French,night-driving in ferocious snow storms after dark, looking after myself, insisting on gardening. Am still trying to get medical profession help. Do not to want to die, just because of hypopneas. idm

    I sleep on a Reflux Guard every night, how does that effect my sleep studies when I am sleeping flat at the sleep lab?
