Lack of Oxygen During Sleep - A Common Occurence?

[lflatford]

No matter if you have CF or not your body's O2 will desat at night because your body is in a relax stage. I would ask your doc to order a pulse ox, to make sure you are not below 88%, if you are below 88 your doctor may order night time oxygen and that will help with the headaches as well as daytime sleepiness.

Thanks Lindsey (and others) for the info.

I had never heard of desating before, I will definitely hit my doc up about it.

Its very common, especially when people lay flat on their back. I usually drop about 5-6% when I lay down, that is when I am feeling well. People breath slower, and less shallow while they sleep, plus your heart rate is often lower. The combination reducing the amount of oxygen that is carried through your system. Night time oxygen is often the first step in getting oxygen due to this common occurrence. Definitely get it checked out because you don't want to cause further damage to your body.

I have this same issue. I had severe experiences with this when I was getting sinus surgery and I received pain medication which made me sleepy, and reduced my respiration rate and volume. I woke during that time with the worst headaches/migranes that could not be overpowered and lasted well into the early afternoon. I sleep with O2 and added a recent thread last week that relates somewhat to this issue.

Best of luck,
Grendel
