I haven't heard of a BI Pap machine, I will look into that.

So the fact that my oxygen has never dropped more than two points doesn't matter? My only problem with getting help with breathing is that when I have the problem my whole body is so weak I can't communicate, with anyone, or move. I just don't know what to do here.

I have a muscle biopsy on Friday they are hoping to find out exactly what is happening. I had an exercise test a few weeks ago that showed a possible myopathy in the blood work so they are doing the muscle biopsy to find out which one.

They are thinking I either have Myasthenia Gravis or Periodic Paralysis. I just want to know what's happening. I have had weak spells every day for over a week and a half now, usually I only get a few a month plus just no energy.

In my most recent weak spells I have noticed that if I lay down to rest and just try to sleep it off or think of something else I will have a noise or something startle me and feel like I have not really been breathing. As long as I focus on breathing I can breath well enough to keep me alive but it's still a struggle. I don't know if this makes sense I'm having a hard time thinking tonight, happens all the time for me but it's worse when I'm tired.

Sorry this is so long, I just feel like I might be close to an answer and the people here seem to be able to relate to what I'm going through, usually I just get people who think it's depression.

Thanks again for the info and support.
