Well, I got a call from the doctor's office today.  when I sleep, I get 88% oxygen saturation only about 50% of the time and it's supposed to be 97% saturation 99% of the time.
It explains why I'm so damned tired and why I really like the oxygen at the dentist's office so much.
They said that they would give me oxygen.  I asked why not a sleep study?  Oxygen might help, but it's not going to solve the problem if I have sleep apnea.  I'm still waiting to hear on everything, but it's distressing.  I'm afraid to sleep now.  
I read on a message board that people have strokes and heart attacks from sleep apnea.  I don't want to die, so I'm scared til I get some help.
