I'm lucky in that my apnea, right now, is called "mild" bc I only had 3 episodes (during the study, that is) where I stopped breathing more than 10 seconds; and had 42 that were < 10 seconds. But, I also have to take meds or don't sleep at all...so you know how those complicate/exacerbate the whole issue...so I need to get this taken care of, bc as you say, it's dangerous.
So sorry to hear about the sleep apnea, you are exactly the opposite of what I would call the typical sufferer. I was just wondering how much the sleep medication is contributing to this? I thought certain sleep medications could actually cause this. I mean do you think you had the problem before the sleep medications? Hopefully, you will get some good answers before you consider any surgery – that sounds pretty awful, and still won't help the insomnia. I wish they could treat that better. My prayers are with you, I had problem with insomnia, and it can make life miserable.
