Guest guest Posted June 12, 2002 Report Share Posted June 12, 2002 Thank you all for responding to my post. I am going to see a specialist here in Maine who diagnoses FM. I will talk to her about a sleep study as you have all recommended that this be done. I will agree that there is something going on since If I sleep with a small fan blowing right in my face I sleep better. If I don't have the fan going, I feel like I'm smothering. This could be because I am not getting enough oxygen while lying down/sleeping. I have just recently gone from 248 pounds to 200 pounds and will lose another 40 pounds to get to my goal. This weight loss has still not helped with this feeling of smothering. I am hoping to get some help from the specialist. It is nice to know I am " not alone " in this. Again, thanks for your helpful responses. (in Maine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
