sometimes, it’s not about weight. other things can obstruct your breathing, like tonsils or just genetic stuff.
ask someone who is sleeping in the same room/bed with you to observe whether you stop breathing during your sleep. with my dad, he snores, so it is really easy to tell if he is breathing or not. sometimes, he stops for about 15 seconds at a time.
I think I might have sleep apnea, but I’m not overweight?! I was having so much trouble sleeping today.
how can u tell if u have it?
Itsa serious condition which can kill you. One of my freinds was not fat when he was digonosed with sleep apnea. It slows down your metabolism which cause you to gain weight at faster pace. In his case; He gain 50LBS with in a year. Fater you get, this condition get worsen. So best thing to do is to excersise regularly and keep using the C-pep machine or a jaw band that hold your jaw in close position to re-train you to breath through your nose ( depends on the severity of the condition)
it will make you feel like superman… even on the first night used!!!!
Im not fat and I was just diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and cat wait to get this machine.
I would have to say being overweight and sleep apnea go hand in hand. You could just have poor sleep and end up getting overweight because you are trying to cope with the depression (plus your metabolism is probably down too). Then once you’re overweight you have sleep apnea. It’s not always a Point A leads to Point B sort of thing. I know people that have been able to lose weight as well because of this machine.
um…that’s an extremely offensive comment. Most OVERWEIGHT people have it, yes (like me) and it is a problem. But please don’t say “fat” it’s rude.
Nope, not really – I have it and is has alot to dio with facial structure and GENES
does anyone ever notice that mostly fat people have sleep apnea. my dad has it and he was told that to lose weight would help and he is fat and he now has this machine.
I have just been diagnosed with Sleep Apena, and have done all the test and will hopefully be getting the machine soon.
Agreed. I’ve never been fat but I have severe obstructive apnea.
I wondered the same thing when the sleep doctor offered me ambien and said it would not skew the test. He seems like a smart guy and has been doing this for many years so I trust that he’s right.
Snoring isn’t sexy? No, common sense tells you that. A CPAP machine.. now that’s fucking sexy. Oh god I can’t wait till the next lady I bring home sees my CPAP machine.. it’s gonna make her taco POP!
Thank you for having a brain.
Its not a miracle, but I understand it must feel like a miracle for all your struggles / symptoms to just melt away within 24 to 48 hrs.
The Snoring Isn’t Sexy website encourages patients to discuss their experiences with CPAP, Dental Mouthpieces and Pillar procedure. Visit the “Patient Comments” section and rate your appliance, CPAP or surgical procedure’s effectiveness.
Doctors in the US (as everywhere else) cannot refuse treatment to people, the government picks up the tab one way or the other, you’re already paying for it, and all the Insurance Companies are profiteering from it. Some things are above profit, Health Care is one of them.
Thats why Americas healthcare is piss. A national health service wouldn’t really cost you more. Your employer could contribute the cost cents a week. Anyone who is unemplyed would be covered automaticly. The problem with your current system is it’s not run by the government. Instead your leaders take bribes from lobbyists while Americans get told that there insurance won’t cover there sickness..
My sisters life was saved by an experimental operation had we been american we would be bankrupted.
Playing the didgeridoo has helped me and they didn’t mention that research on the show. I love it and I’m getting good at it now. Much less sleepy during the day. There is a fun yet educational video on my “Crazy Cures” channel.
No thanks claudis192, I would rather demand to keep my money! There’s no such thing as free health care. The last thing in the world I want is government-controlled healthcare. We should take to the streets to demand that the 16th ammendment be repealed and the IRS building turned into a parking lot.
Lil Wayne has sleep apnea… no lie
Thanks for the info
