Thanks, E. Cycle never ended, but had progressed to chronic. More frequent, less intense.

Better results with O2 using different technique. Inhale, hold for 20 secs, exhale, repeat. Aborts in 5 min or less 100% of time past 3 years. Too tired (read chicken) to experiment.

Need feedback re oximeter readings:

1. Is anybody monitoring blood O2 saturation:
a. in cycle?
b. control (between cycles)?

2. Make & model of oximeter?

3. What are the control readings (avarage resting)?

4. What are the readings before, during and after an attack?

5. What are the readings when overcome with yawning?

6. Change in saturation level after breathing O2, and if so, how soon after start?

Thanks,
M.I.K.
