Do it. Seriously. I can't believe the change in my life since discovering (in my 40s!) that I've suffered from sleep apnea my entire teen/adult life.

- Mahn 12y agoOut of curiosity, in which ways did your life change? How did you adjust or what do you do differently now that you know?
- verisimilitude 12y agoFor what it is worth, I had a neighbor who was so exhausted he retired. THEN he got a CPAP machine and felt so amazing he'd wished he'd kept working.
- Afton 12y agoI never notice when my comments are replied to! Sorry for the delay: The biggest change is that I used to get migraines from lack of sleep (even while sleeping 8-10 hours plus occasional naps). Now I can get 6 a night continuously and be more alert. But most importantly my quality of life improved drammatically on account of having probably 30 hours a week of migraine-hours removed. I still occasionally get lack-of-sleep-migraines, but they are rare, and are usually well deserved (I have three children, a puppy, and an unwillingness to give up 'alone time' in order to sleep enough. It's a bad combination).
