I would suggest talking to your doctor and getting re-evaluated. There's = a lot to it, and while we are smart folks, we aren't (most of us) MDs. Thereby hangs a tale. I may have told this here before, but I don't rememb= er. I went to Vegas last summer, and saw the Penn and Teller show. After the s= how, I bought (among other things) the book "Presto, how I made 100 pounds = disappear". Taking as much as I could out of the book, and talking it over with my doct= or (well, we can try it, but keep a close eye on your BP and blood sugar, w= e can always stop if things start going wrong) I applied the principles exp= ressed by Penn from his diet plan by Ray Cronise.=20 Passing on this gem of wisdom from Penn verbatim: "If you take medical advi= ce from a juggler, you're an asshole and you deserve to die". I'm down 60#, most of that happening in 6 weeks. Yes, at the beginning I w= as loosing more than two pounds a day! It tapers off as you burn those res= erves you've been hauling around for years. Like Penn, I was on multiple meds for high blood pressure, plus I was on in= sulin for diabetes. Within a week, I was off my BP meds tracking dead normal. Within that same week, I no longer needed my insulin, or anything else for = my diabetes. My blood sugar is pretty constantly 80 now. A1C is dead norm= al. Still loosing weight, just slower now with changes to diet habits and no lo= nger eating "SAD". (Standard American Diet). I'm still diabetic, the diet didn't change that, but the loss of weight and= change in eating habits makes it largely a non-problem. I'm not stressing= the system so hard anymore. I had one blood sugar crash when I decided to step up my game and fast.. Si= x days in I finally ran out of gas and my blood sugar went below 70. Fasti= ng was EASY.=20 https://www.amazon.com/Raymond-J.-Cronise/e/B077M8SDDR https://www.nomeatathlete.com/radio-113/ -----Original Message----- From: piclist-bounces@mit.edu On Behalf Of Art Sent: Thursday, April 5, 2018 11:22 AM To: Microcontroller Public Subject: [EE] sleep apnea home test? I've gone through a massive change of lifestyle (diet, weight loss, realiza= tion of the myth that the traditional type doctors, FDA, USDA, American Dia= betes Association, pharmaceutical industry, farming mafia, Congress, health= insurance industry etc) are all lying scum. Many of my health conditions a= re drastically improved, just with a proper diet as specified by Functional= Medicine practitioners in the first 3 weeks of my lifestyle change. I am s= till in recovery, but..... My sleep improved, I am curious whether I have need for my CPAP machine any= longer. I need at least a screening test for sleep quality evaluation, rat= her than a full blown lab type sleep test. Sensors to detect breathing patterns (sound recorder), sleep paralysis (wri= st or leg worn accelerometer) and O2 sat meter (finger clip on) and to data= log the results overnight is good enough for my needs at this point. Has anyone done a PIC program for this purpose? Or maybe someone has a kit?= ? I would interpret my own results, at least as far as a 'preliminary' home test/evaluation. Any ideas?
