Guest guest Posted April 21, 2000 Report Share Posted April 21, 2000 Hi, I see by your Stats that you had Sleep Apnea. Can you tellme what your symptons were? I think I have been having some symptons (waking up abruptly after just falling asleep) and I am concerned about going through the surgery 5-15 and having this sympton happening while I am " under " . Any insight on how you discovered you had it would be greatly appreciated. If anyone has or have had sleep apnea I would love to hear what your symptons are/were. You can e-mail me at: Frohnie63078@... THANK YOU, Debbie in Cleveland, OH MGB 5-15-2000 Clinic4-29-2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2000 Report Share Posted April 22, 2000 Dear Debbie, I'm pre-op and in the process of doing all the paperwork. I have sleep apnea, I had a sleep study done 10 years ago and discovered that I stopped breathing numerous times during sleep and at times for up to 47 seconds. My main complaint was chronic fatigue. I mentioned to my husband that I thought I had something wrong with my heart because I felt exhausted all the time. He told me he thought I had a sleep disorder because he could hear me stop breathing for long periods of time and then I would gasp for air. I went to my PCP and he referred me for a sleep study. Sure enough I was diagnosed and then put on Trazadone. I also had a deviated septum and enlarged turbinate bone corrected by an ENT doctor. That did not fix the problem. I still have sleep apnea so anytime I'm being " put under " I make sure everyone knows. I have never experienced any complications. I hope this puts your mind at rest.

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2000 Report Share Posted April 22, 2000 Debbie: Hi It from Michigan. To find out about sleep apnea just click on Keyword and in the box type sleep apnea then click enter. It will bring up a screen, all you have to do then is click on sleep apnea and a wealth of information pops up. You can even take a quiz to see if you possibly have it. {{{{{HUGS}}}}} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 22, 2000 Report Share Posted April 22, 2000 Debbie, One thing I forgot to mention is the SNORING!!!!!!!!!! Snoring is not natural and is usually an indication of something wrong.......such as sleep apnea. Best of Luck, Genz Frohnie63078@... wrote: > Dear .
