Hello. Hope your recovery is progressing.

You asked "COULD 66 HYPOPS CAUSE 49 AWAKENINGS?"
Based on how you worded it, it seems like you are saying you feel it is unlikely. Is that what you mean?

I'm no sleep tech, but it would seem the answer is obviously yes. Some people seem to have a low threshold of arousal. The summary doesn't tell, but the graph should be able to tell if the arousal are associated with the respiratory events. It would be great to get Sandman's input on this.
