Patient: wake up always in the middle of the night, cant breath , flushed i wake up always in the middle of the night, cant breath, flushed... on the verge of passing out and sometimes i have, have to use my nebulizer machine (i have asthma ) sweating profusely. sometimes this last about 20 mins. Doctor: Hi.. ... How many times do you wake up from deep sleep with such symptoms? The symptoms that you describe are referred to as hypopnea... Multiple such episodes occuring throughout the night is a feature of sleep apnea syndrome... You need sleep studies(polysomnogram), weight reduction programme and correction of an ENT problem if any... If such episodes are severe and multiple, you may need the help of breathing support such as CPAP when going to bed... Consult a pulmonologist, who will examine you, evaluate, suggest specific treatment plan and guide you further... Regards
