What to do if i had a sleep test done, i stop breathing 149 times per hour. how common is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: That would be an ahi of about 15, indicating a mild/moderate level of obstructive sleep apnea. This is a serious life threatening or life shortening condition that can prematurely cause death. Not common and not to br ignored. Seek professional help asap!
