Hey JR,

If I find anything else out i'll let you know. I did seem to find that if someone has very bad apnea, it can increase the cell count. But whats puzzling is my husband has mild.. yet he snores alot.. he is young, not a prime canditate of apnea, or high blood counts.. we are in the wait and see mode. How old are you JR? How bad is your apnea? Oh most important, have your levels gone up and down? Or have they been on a steady increase?

As you can see, and I can see from your results, they ar not overly high.. what does your Dr suggest might be going on? Any ideas? feel free to email us.
