Actually, these are NORMAL (or nearly normal) blood oxygen levels. It's unusual that you'd have sixty events per hours and still maintain such high blood oxygen levels. Besides deprving the body of oxygen (which appears not to be happenning to you), Sleep Apnea fragments your sleep, so you never achieve the deep sleep that you need.
