Scary episode tonight...

I woke up from sleep tonight, and was gasping for air, and in extreme pain in my right upper body. I put on my oxygen and laid back down, and after 1/2 hour I was back to "normal". This was probably a "hypoxic" episode caused by my sleep apnea, where despite my sleep apnea machine and oxygen, my oxygen level went too low. Scary!!! It's hard because I live alone; if someone was here, they could have rushed me to the emergency room.

But now I see fine, but I am "packing" for the emergency room. I am the only person I know who has to pack up for the ER! I have to pack my sleep apnea machine, my crushed medications, and copy my recent report from the University of Michigan...

It's just probably either I wasn't get enough oxygen or I am dehydrated or something. But I need to be monitored and probably have some blood tests, so off I go. Just a bump in the road, to remind me I'm not "normal", in that I do have medical conditions...
