Hello
For years my mom said my dad stops breathing in his sleep. My father does have a history of medical problems, at 49 he had a stroke, recovered 99%, lives a normal life on blood thinners. Also, he might have to have valave replacement surgery in the future. Well, last night he went for a sleep study. He was up all night, well, they woke him all night and he was trying to use the CPAP, he said he just coudlnt do it, it made him choke. In 2 weeks he goes for this follow up and will also take a class onhow to use the CPAP. I am so nervous, another thing to worry about with my Dad. Can anyone give advice or just help me feel any better?
Thanks in advance...Joanne - Connecticut
