    Not good. FCV is low. O2 sats are in the 80's. They sent me home with an order for oxygen use at home. He said he's sticking with the c-pap for now with added oxygen--pending results of AGBs and CT of chest. Will change it to bi-pap if the ABGs suggest I need it. The walking for 6 minutes...

    Sleep Study Results

    Sleep study results weren't good. I have to go back tonight for a second study--this time with CPap. Apparently I stop breathing quite frequently, which is likely causing the daily headaches. They couldn't tell me, though, if the low O2 sats were from the lungs or from the muscles...

    3 hour neuro appt

    Spent 3 hours with the neuro the crap insurance sent me to. They had told me the Emg/ncv was approved....it wasn't. I sat for an hour and a half after his exam--because he said it's imperative that an EMG/NCV be done this week--and he also says I need biopsies. He wanted EMG/NCVs approved...
