I took a test to see what my oxygen levels were during the night.  The test showed that I woke up as many as 18 times and my oxygen level dropped into the eighties and sometime as low as 74.  I dont feel any of the effects of this.  Is this something I should worry about/  Emerson
Hello dear Emerson Thanks for using Chat Doctor.come have evaluated your query thoroughly.* This seems in relation with shallow breathing most probably in association with underlying stress, anxiety issue.* Not to worry but require physician consultation for anxiety management.* Deep breathing exercises , walking in fresh air , YOGA will help you tremendously.  - Avoid stress, anxiety, smoking, alcohol. Hope this will help you for sure. Welcome for any further doubts. Regards dear.
