I have severe sleep apnea , i know what you all are saying is true .Invasive surgery is not for everyone ,and after the surgery there are the side effects in some cases .CPAP works so does oxygen ,but the CPAP has draw backs if you have sinus drip ,allergies, claustrophobia ther are lots of times you wont be able to wear it even if you wanted to in your sleep yopull pull it off. There are also other problems toomuch force tends to blow the mask off your face ,its not a question of you adjusting to the pressure its the problem the pressure is to much to keep the mask on . Yess there are days you still snore under the mask , it will also inflate you like a big blimp, youll start to disemflate to every opening on your body ,at times it sounds funny. and some surgery is not reality because of the complications so you learn to live with this disability.
Make the best of it living your days on this earth , lets face it no one lives forever. The good thing about the sleeep test is that you now can plan your life and acording to how severe it is. take the necessary steps to treat it but always prepare for the worst , and HBP,sudden death is a possibility . So live life like you want to. and nap when you can , remember a nap a day gets you by all day.
God Bless,remember sleep apnea is not a one solution hat there are so amny treatments and alternatives ,its the informed individual who makes the best choices see more than one specialist.
