I Know Many Of Us Have REM Disorder. Anyone With Sleep Apnea?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question 💭
Shelbyville, IL

I'll be at computer or reading. I'll be sitting talking with someone. I'll go to sleep. Then with-in seconds I awaken as if struck by lightning. Twice I have knocked everything off my desk. I told my neurologist, I see her Thurs.

Up Date: My neurologist believes it is the Pramipexole doing this. She is weaning me off of it. 1 month to go, but I already feel better.

Oh my Teresa! I don't want to hit the floor in Church. LOL So embarrassing. And I don't want to shut my eyes while driving and awaken in a ditch.

I just had one last night; I don’t know if I passed or failed. In my mind I passed because insurance pays for the oxygen and I can’t do without.

My oxygen level bounced up and down all night, but didn't go low. I am to have the sleep apnea test.
