Sigh..

Well, it's official. I have sleep apnea. Doc says from my history, I've probably had it since I was little. Apparently, during the test, they count number of breath obstruction "incidents" and normal is less than 5, severe is more than 30, and mine was 24. Every time I went into REM sleep I stopped breathing, and I only once went into "deep" sleep-- stage 3-- and never got into stage 4. I guess that would kind of explain why I'm so damned tired all the time. My body's not getting any sleep and I'm oxygen-deprived. I go in again Sunday for a test with the cpap and we'll see if that works or not. I hope so. With all the health problems I have, it would be nice to know at least one of them is actually treatable.
