I need oxygen at night but my so called lung doctor ignores me when I tell him I’m struggling at night because he goes by the pulmonary testing

That's got to be pretty frustrating! Have you spoken with him about a test called an "overnight oximetry study," or perhaps even a sleep study? There are a lot of things that can make you short of breath at night in addition to low oxygen levels.

@@hippiegirl5167 Sometimes apnea events cannot be seen by the naked eye. There are also things called hypopneas where you don't *entirely* stop breathing altogether, but you aren't breathing deeply enough to move air effectively. Those can also cause issues. If you had an overnight sleep study that showed sleep apnea, I would STRONGLY recommend you trust those results and begin treatment as soon as possible!
