What else can I do?

Posted by Susan Coffman on April 28, 1998 at 19:51:21:

After being on CPAP for two years, I went back to my doctor and had another pulseoximeter test done as I was experiencing my original sleep apnea conditions. My test came back with my oxygen level down below 90 71% of the time. My CPAP pressure was increased from 11 to 15. I feel as if this condition is worsening despite doing everything my doctor has suggested. Does anyone have any other suggestions how to manage this condition? Please help.
