Update: we were in the doctors office for over two hours. With the doctor for an hour and 15 minutes. He very thoroughly discussed James history, his sleep study results, his labs, his meds, and his recent apneic events as well as his seizures. There is no doubt that when James is more tired he has more seizures and more apnea. He definitely feels that James sleep is affected but very mild respiratory events but mostly by periodic limb movements. He would like to see James taken off of his evening dose of Onfi as that can cause significant respiratory depression. That will have to be determined by the Neurologist. In the meantime the Pulmonologist/sleep specialist is going to put him on a large dose of iron to try to stop the periodic limb movements and hopefully improve his quality of sleep.
