Sorry I'm just getting back to take a look at this.

I would tend to agree with most of the comments they
made...mild apnea with some plm, and fragmented sleep. You
spent about 11 percent of the night in 3 and 4...that should be
around 20-25, I believe. You may've had delayed REM onset as
well, but I'm not sure about that. Your REM time was also low--
you spent a significant amount of time in Stage 2.

The PLM could result from the antidepressants. They give some
people random muscle spasms (mild) but they could've showed
up as plms.

What are you going to try in terms of therapy?
