RESPeRATE with deviated trachea and OSA
Written by: Dr. Rowena | Posted: Apr 05 2007
Q: I breathe heavily all the time and it’s loud even at rest. I do not suffer from asthma but I do have a deviated trachea and OSA (I use a CPAP machine). Could these conditions give me a problem when using RESPeRATE?
A: The RESPeRATE has no side effects, however, Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) or structural abnormalities of the respiratory system were excluded from RESPeRATE’s clinical trials. The RESPeRATE may help, but only your personal doctor knows your background and will be able to help you make a decision.

Q: I recently had a stroke. How can I keep my blood pressure normal? What is normal anyway? Can RESPeRATE help me now?
A: The RESPeRATE may help, however, it was not tested after a stroke in its clinical trials. Only your personal doctor knows your background and will be able to help you make a decision. In general a reading of 140/90 or more is considered to be high blood pressure and should be treated. A reading of 120/80 or less is considered normal. Both numbers are important.
