Yeah, that was a cheery little article! I suffered from sleep apnea for 3 years, omg it was miserable. I actually figured out why myself. I looked up drug side effects, and a pill they gave me for high blood pressure swelled my throat almost shut.
When I read this, I thought, no way! However the first night I didn't take it, I only woke up once. The second night I slept the whole night. Doctors are hell and don't know shit!
