Breathing easy tonight, I hope!! The CPAP machine finally arrived and my husband will be using it tonight. Finally we will both get a good night's sleep. Even after the sleep study I have had to see him going wihout breathing way too long. 4 big breaths and then nothing for 30-40 seconds. His oxygen levels were done to 60 during the test and they give oxygen in hospital settings when it drops below 80. Can't for the life of me figure out why it doesn't matter for him to go without. No wonder he is so tired all the time and can fall asleep in a matter of seconds day or night. I'll post again and let you know how it goes tonight.
