“Something I had been curious about was the use of prescription drugs while on CPAP. Since I had a wide range of prescriptions, I decided I would take them all before I went to bed to see what happened. The nighttime low oxygen events went much higher! I was seeing over five minutes of low oxygen with much lower oxygen excursions. This matched what I saw when I was initially placed onto CPAP in February 2016. As 2016 went on, I started to get increasingly fatigued as I was placed onto more prescription drugs. I eventually started falling asleep in my car while driving!”

“I found it concerning the sleep clinic had prescribed a setting that made me sick and this matched my findings with the CPAP machine that these CPAP and BiPAP prescriptions are highly inaccurate!

It takes weeks of experimentation to find the correct setting of these machines and sleep clinics trying to do it in one night is just providing many sickened patients with a really bad healthcare experience.”
