Sandra, I've looked over the website and a few others which I found on google, about Buteyko. Very interesting and I will be passing them along to my dau. who has moderate asthma.

But, I am not sure how it would help with sleep apnea, as I would be unaware, i.e. asleep, (I Hope!) whilst breathing, so could not concentrate on how I am breathing. One thing I do know, when I was in full-blown CHF, I had way too much carbon dioxide and not enough O2, but that was all pre-surgery.

The way they've described apnea to me is I actually quit breathing. Otherwise, the rest of the night my O2 levels were fine, so maybe I am not a shallow breather anymore!:-)

Well, more to ponder.:-)

Thanks, again,

kat
