Brief Answer:
Check your Oxygen saturation

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Since you have OSA, the chances of your oxygen saturation dropping down in the night during sleep is more.

I would suggest you to ask your family to check your oxygen saturation during the night and record the same. If on the lower side, it can explain the problems you are going through now.

Lack of sleep can make you fatigued and sweat more. It can also aggravate the anxiety issues.

Kindly let me know the saturation of one or two nights.
Waiting for your response.

Oxygen level is good. I get really stressed from heat. It doesn't have to be really hot. Just being upstairs versus being down stairs makes a difference. I have to sleep downstairs where it is cooler. We have air conditioning so it isn't that warm upstairs either. This started in XXXXXXX Has been getting worse. Doctors statement: "You'll live a long time but just be miserable". Reasoning being that nothing has been found from all the tests. Ultra sounds, monitor, blood and urine all indicate nothing abnormal. Am going to keep trying. Considering getting to the Mayo clinic. Look forward to any suggestions, Thank You.
