Guest Hal Posted August 25, 2007 Report Share Posted August 25, 2007 Took my life when I was a baby. I was obviously resuscitated, so, that worked out. For the next year of my life I was hooked up to a breathing machine that beeped like a fry machine every time I stopped breathing. I have never had a relapse luckily.

wnaplay1647545503 Posted August 26, 2007 Report Share Posted August 26, 2007 40+x's an hour where I stop breathing makes for a miserable life. Its odd that most people develop this due to obesity however I dont consider myself overweight. 5'10 185lbs. They say the surgery to remove alot of the obstructions, in most cases doesnt work. I have heard as high as in 50% of the cases. Hopefully the company will be getting with me soon to equip me with the cpap machine. It has gotten severe over the last few weeks and has forced me to take more time off than the whole 8 years I have been at my job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
