Sleep Apnea Study – Adventures in Medicine 2008 10 02
Sleep Apnea is when your breathing stops during sleep, and it can be fatal.
I made this video, with the help of the tech, Mark, to help those who are told they need a sleep study to diagnose sleep apnea.
There is humor in anything, I think, but sleep apnea can be deadly and is not a joke.
If your doc wants you tested, get tested.
I will get my results in a week or so.

TY for that teeth brushing reminder– my down fall is that I love watching films and tele, and I eat. . . then fall asleep on the couch. Four hours later I wake up, THEN brush my teeth. .. very bad! My daughter says I breathe from my chest now(because of weight) and that is why my singing voice changed. Perhaps fat causes Sleep Apnea too. MArk’s Goatee is way sexy. Have you tried swimming everyday plus relaxation techniques?

Oh, I remember now what happened after the test.
He had to use some kind of breathing machine every night(a small one, not the big one like in the hospital… maybe the size of a small vacuum cleaner).
