    it’s something to be checked out and treated early if possible, but nothing to lose too much sleep over

    (also you didn’t do the best job censoring your birth year ;) )

    If it leads to what’s essentially long term sleep deprivation (or just very very poor sleep) then it can definitely have bad effects on your health

    If it’s what‘s behind what you’re dealing with is hard to say though

    your saturation is pretty ass and that can cause:

    ` Mild hypoxia (PaO2 60-80 mmHg/SpO2 90 to 94 percent): In mild hypoxia, the oxygen levels in the blood are slightly lower than normal but still within a relatively safe range for most individuals. Symptoms of mild hypoxia may include:

    Shortness of breath
    Rapid breathing
    Increased heart rate
    Fatigue
    Mild confusion
    

    Moderate hypoxia (PaO2 40 to 60 mmHg/SpO2 80 to 89 percent): Moderate hypoxia is characterized by a more significant decrease in oxygen levels in the blood, which can lead to more pronounced symptoms, which include:

    Severe shortness of breath
    Rapid breathing
    Increased heart rate
    Confusion and impaired coordination
    Headache
    

    Moderate hypoxia can occur at high altitudes, during severe respiratory conditions or in situations where oxygen supply to the body is restricted. `

    Could try getting pulse oximeter, and hyperventilating till your number goes up to confirm. Likely cause would be neurological
