Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am having over 2500 PAC s per day. My cardiac evaluation is normal otherwise but screening shows that I probably have sleep apnea. My cardiologist is hopeful that CPAP will relieve both. Can I hope for relief from the fish flopping sensation by wearing CPAP at night?
