Can someone please tell me what these sleep study results mean?

When you sleep, you have episodes where you quit breathing and your blood oxygen levels get pretty low, sometimes as low as 70%. As a result, your sleep isn't normal. The doctor suggests an oxygen machine and weight loss. He also wants your lungs and heart evaluated. You might need to have surgery to get rid of some of your flesh that's blocking your airway.
