Dorothy, Thanks for your concern and
prayers.
If you husband is still "forgetting to
breathe" as I like to call it, PLEASE, have him check with his doctor
immediately. I should have done so about 4 months ago but just thought I
was restless during the night. They have increased my flow from level 7
to level 8 because I was having new apnea episodes. They wanted to go to
level 9 but I could not tolerate it.
I do not know what their final decision will be -
surgery is always an option - but not the best one for heart patients.
However, I do have excellent cardiologist, internist, alergist, and sleep
therapist working together on it. Hopefully the good Lord will also see
fit to put me back in top shape again. It was so wonderful for awhile
that I have become spoiled.

Jean,
I want to extend my prayers for
you. My husband also has sleep apnea, and sleeps with the machine. He also
still forgets to breath. I just assumed since he was getting so much air
that it was ok. From what you say, it could be worse.
Hope you are feeling better soon. I am
anxious to hear what you follow-up is.
Best of luck,
Dorothy
