Brian,
Welcome to NeuroTalk. We discuss sleep issues, apnea and PCS frequently. A reminder is good.
Early on, I had serious problems with CSA that would make my days miserable.
Do you have OSA, Obstructive Sleep Apnea or CSA, Central Sleep Apnea ?
Has anybody suggested seeing an ENT to see if a surgical intervention would help ? A deviated septum, enlarged turbinates, enlarged tonsils or adenoids and some other anatomical issues can be corrected. I recently had a septoplasty and turbinoplasty.
The week of recovery is well worth the improvements. For me, it was not the cause of my apnea. I caused me to have bloody noses during the dry winter. But, the improvement in my breathing is amazing. I know others who have had tissue tightening with a laser procedure that resolved their OSA.
Do you have any residual PCS struggles ?
