Our Sleep Apnea Blog | I Hate CPAP


Obstructive sleep apnea affects around 20 million Americans and can lead to hypertension, heart attack, stroke, depression, muscle pain, fibromyalgia, morning headaches, and excessive daytime sleepiness.

I am interested in alternatives to CPAP Machines. I am considering a sleep study only because my Pulmonologist thinks I should take one. I have no classic symptoms. Sometimes snore, am not tired upon awakening, no headaches, don't doze off during the day, even after meals, at movies, etc. So, I am not sure what to do regarding the study...thx, bob

I WOULD DEFINITELY TELL YOU TO HAVE THE SLEEP STUDY. MANY PATIENTS HAVE SEVERE PROBLEMS BUT ARE SYMPTOM FREE. TRUST YOUR PULMONOLOGIST ON THIS ONE.
