Last Thursday afternoon, 29th November, I was finally cardioverted...successful on the first attempt and discharged in rhythm/sinus.
I took a Kadia reading over 1 minute next morning, with Finding by AliveCor: Unclassified...and my pulse rate was 51bpm.
My AHI result for the hours I was using my ASV reflected as usual...<1, however it was not my best night as I awoke over 4 sessions of brief periods...this being somewhat unusual for me (of the last 4 months).
For Friday, Saturday and most of Sunday I was pleased with my low heart rate (monitored periodically with a heart band monitor and a Suunto watch), and a finger SpO2 reader when not wearing the heart monitor band....and my sleep apnea results.
On Sunday night I attended a neighbourhood Xmas drinks 'do', and had over 4 hours, 5 Hahn Lite stubbies while wearing the monitor...my first alcoholic drink since the previous Tuesday.
Alas, I noted a change to the 'below 90' readings, to rise to 'above 100' and up to 135 on walking home.
Now one neighbour is a retired doctor, and on showing him the Kadia graph result of the previous Friday morning, suggested the absence of 'a P wave' might indicate that I was still in Afib...and this was confirmed with my GP yesterday morning.
I will be seeing again my cardiologist on his return from holidays on 17th December, and meanwhile will continue on beta blocker and blood thinner tablets as previously prescribed until then, but what I would like to present to both him and the sleep physician I'll see after that consult, is the SleepyHead data and the SpO2 data on the one graph.
Previous posts have explained both my own Windows MediView download of SpO2 being read separately to the SleepyHead data, but has the latest work resolved past issues, and, if I purchase something from
Supplier #19 now, will I be able to achieve my objective now...to see the SpO2 data within the SleepyHead graphs???
Thanks...poppypete.
