Subject: Partial Sleep Apnea? I have recently had a sleep study and a nap study. Since I have not had a consult with the doctor yet I am curious as to something that the Tech said. She stated that I had sleep apnea but I didn't. She said that at times during the night I did and others I didn't. She classified it as moderate and recommended that I stay for the nap study. It's was not bad enough to require being put on CPAP during the night. My question is: What is the probable course of treatment for someone who is having sleep apnea at times? My children say that I awake them snoring at times and at other times that I do not snore at all. Why would this happen? I have a seizure disorder or it could be epilepsy and am also hypothyroid. Could this all be linked with the sleep apnea? I do know that they did bloodwork checking for thyroid problems before the sleep study. Why? Thank you. |
