Sleep Apnea

[Man_City_Loyal]

I was recently diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnoea with an average of 82.6 events per hour.

No wonder I’ve been absolutely knackered for the past few months!

I don’t actually fall asleep during the day (unless I lie down lol) but it fatigues me so much that I’ve had to take time off work as I was struggling to get through a full day.

I’ve had my CPAP machine around a month now and am still struggling to keep it on for more than 3 or 4 hours at a time due to waking up in a blind panic ripping it off my face!

Mine is definitely linked to recent weight gain (went from 14.5 stone to 18 during Covid) so in a way it could well be the kick up the arse I need to sort my lard arse out.

…if only I had the bloody energy lol!

I lost alot of weight and still struggle to sleep

It’s not always linked to excess weight unfortunately @Man_City_Loyal.

For instance what they call central apnoeas are neurological by nature.

Have you done a sleep study?

I haven't you know. I will discuss it with my doctor
