For the past 2 nights he’ll wake up with his eyes open but they look glossy and red, talk to me then fall back into deep sleep. He has been getting only about 4 hours of sleep and is under great stress because he is in a firefighter academy is the only thing i can think of causing that but still, something doesnt seem right. I will be taking him to the doctors this weekend or the next. He hasnt talked to anyone recently but when he was about 15 he did stay overnight in the hospital but from i know they didnt give him anything. Normally he sounds like hes gasping for air and snores heavily but this was different. He never stood straight up before and he was looking right at me shaking and it sounded like somethibg was choking him. After the episode happened he had no memory of what happened he was confused.
I don’t think they gave him anything, I do remember they did say he sleep in the hospital overnight. Hes also been waking up still asleep with his eye open, will talk to then fall right back into deep sleep. Will be taking him to the doctors in a week or two
My boyfriend was diagnosed with sleep apnea around 14. I met him when I was 17 and began living with him when I was 18. I noticed the usual stuff- he would stop breathing, gasp for air then continue on. The loud snores, being extra tired throughout the day ect. Today the scariest thing happened. About 2 hours ago I was laying in bed texting some friends when my boyfriend fully stood up on the bed and started gasping for air, horribly. And i mean he sounded like he was being choked. I kept yelling his name and put my phone light on him and he was almost staring right through me and i noticed his skin color was changing. He somehow stepped off the bed I turned on the light still calling for his name he was able to catch his breath and started coughing alot. Then he looked up at me and asked what happened. He had no memory of what had happened and was confused and scared. He sounded horrible when he was choking, and it happened for about 15 seconds. In the 3 years of sleeping with him almost everyday hes never done this before. Any help?
