[tri-med] Re: Sleep Apnea

Katie,
Just a thought, but how is Mitchell's carbon dioxide levels? Annie had 
shallow breathing apnea. They just called it central, but I believe it was 
related to the fact that her carbon dioxide level were double the upper 
limit of normal all her life. The sleepy feeling from the carbon dioxide can 
cause apnea

Laurie,

This should work. Sorry

Mitchell JUST had an MRI done and it came back perfect! It was such good
news even though we still don't really what in the brain is causing his
apnea. At least we know structurally that his brain is "normal"
I'm confused, if they think it is obstructive, why are they doing an MRI?
Mitchell was born w/a cleft lip and palate--had them both repaired in
September. Why does he think that the palate repair is causing it? Did it
just start after the repair? I know it is frustrating....we are still trying
to figure out Mitchell's apnea.
