We saw Dr. Heist with Dad on Thursday. Dr. Heist confirmed he does have sleep apnea. Dad will begin to use the “mask” for 30 days when he returns from visiting Bob and Maria in DC on April 12.
Dr. Heist wants Dad to lose weight, too. He changed one of his meds that might make him less tired. Dr. H. is disinclined to do a cardiac ablation on dad to take care of his “skipped hearbeats” until after exhausting other treatments. Dad returns in May and will have another Holter monitor at that time.
