If anyone thinks they may have this I urge you to get this addressed. There is no reason to check out because of this in this day and age. A friend of a friend did not wake up yesterday. I used to do some drinking with this guy and grew up with his sister. He and I were not close but we knew each other. 34 is way too young.
Sleep Apnea

sad to hear clem. Anyone that is "big" should get it checked out. You should also ask your s/o if it sounds like you occasionally gasp for air at night, if so calll your dr and get the ball rolling.
I suffer from sleep apnea and having a CPAP has certainly changed my life for the better !
As a child up to 21 I had chronic bloody noses. Multiple times I had each nostril cauterized, which is NOT FUN !
After many failed attempts by civilian and Army docs trying to fix the problem, I had a Septal Dermaplasty performed, which FAILED ! Less than 3 months later the plug fell out ! Now all I have to show for the surgery is a perforated septum ( NO SKIN BETEWEEN LEFT AND RIGHT NOSTRIL) and a huge scar on my right thigh, where the skin was taken from for the skin graph !
Still, Uncle Sam it would be a great idea to send me into the NBC chamber 2 weeks after the surgery ! NICE !
My sleep apnea is so severe that I have over 20 stopped breathing episodes an hour.
This contributes to my migraines, which are described as migraine variants.
This shit is no joke ! :nono:
