Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I think I have developed daytime apnea. I hold my breath while awake. Usually when intensely concentrating. Or as I begin to dream while falling asleep. I don't hold so long as to gasp for air. I have complex (mixed) sleep apnea and use a cervo ventilator every night. But it is now happening during the day. I've heard several hypotheses - brain stem issue, brain issue general, pulmonary issues, etc. I have chronic sinusitis and don't breath well through my nose so think this may have .conditioned me to breath differently. Anyway, I am aware of the dangers and want to seek solutions. Thoughts?
