Mohammad,
When my heart was having troubles, I was sleeping most of the day. I wasn’t using a C-Pap machine then and would stop breathing. The lungs affect the heart. The heart affects the lungs. I hope the medicine they give you will help.

I also done the bronchoscopy/endoscopy after my Pat scan
However, doctors perform my surgeries without general anesthesia by putting me to sleep ,instead for local anesthesia to numb only the specific surgical area while the l stays completely awake.

And the Doctors also spray my nose or throat with a special numbing medicine so do not feel the tube as I do not have much.Breathing on my own. And the doctor wants me to listen to his discussion with the nurse so I can understand what is happening and just told me not to move even an inch.

Mohammad,
Why would you take Velcade if your MM is not showing up?

Mohammad, You may want to schedule taking your medications when you know you will be awake. Between 2 and 3 PM, I know I might be napping.

Mohammad,
When I had Covid and could not breathe if I laid down, I slept in a recliner, but did not recline the whole way. Now, if I am having breathing issues, even though I use a C-Pap machine, I prop myself up with pillows to sleep. It works well. When my mother-in-law's lungs were filling with fluid, when she was dying, we propped her up with pillows.
