Well, I don't know what relief to expect with the following test
results.Total sleep time 238.5, during that time I had 306 arrousals. Apnea
and hypopnea 8, LM arrousals 8, Snoring arrousals 40 and Ta-Da the one that
puzzles me, 253 non-specific arrousals. Sleep efficiency 62%. Then regarding
sleep stages = stage 1 17.0, stage 2 221.5, stage 3 none, stage REM none.

Over several years I have progressed now to a Respironics autosv Advanced.
You would think that with a name that impressive it would have me tap
dancing. That sure isn't happening. I have a neuromuscular disorder and wish
I could find a sleep doctor who is familiar with that.
