Forget to breathe? Stop breathing? LOL. I did not realize how OFTEN I do that while reading a book or watching TV–at least until I was hospitalized in the ICU over my Crohn’s and bleeding. They kept me in the ICU as precautionary measure. Had to have me hooked up to the heart and breathing monitor at ALL times. I set off the breathing alarms about every 5 or 10 minutes. I had to concentrate hard to breathe without setting off the alarms. After about 6 hours of false alarms every 10 minutes, they got the doctor to remove the breathing alarm. They were not worried and did not run into my room because the heart trace was perfectly fine.
