I guess I'm just looking for a bit of reassurance. From what I've been told, from what I read, etc....I'm not sure how bad this is. Some symptoms I think I have to have I don't...Please advise.

I'm 39 years old, 5ft 5in, 138 llbs. I've snored for a few years now, but it's increasingly gotten worse. I wake up sometimes and I can't breathe and I'm ALWAYS tired.

I had my first sleep study for weeks ago. The results came back "moderate amounts of partial obstruction and upper airway resistance"

Any input at all would be greatly appreciated. I'm at a loss. Parts don't seem bad at all.
Yet, the Respitory arousals of 131 concern me. And last night I went in to be titrated for a CPAP and this morning the tech told me she had to put me up to 14. Sounded high, but again, what do I know?

Thank you so much, in advance, for any information you can send my way.
