oh, I am absolutely anxious to get back to sleeping again, Im more worried about somehow having an unlucky draw and having central sleep apnea, which is usually because of a disease,as opposed to OSA which is an easier fix. I want the doctor to just give me a cpap tonight lol
I have yet to be diagnosed officially, but am pretty sure that I have sleep apnea. I've been getting "jolted" out of my sleep for the past few weeks, right as I'm falling asleep sometimes my brain gets a quick kickstart sensation, other times, it's a flutter in the chest, and sometimes, I catch myself snoring with it, but not all the time. It has effected my mood and of course my energy levels. I'm hoping that it isn't sleep apnea, but am even more araid that if it is, it's central sleep apnea caused by some unknown disease. Ive had several heart tests that come back fine. Im 26 y/o, 175 pounds and aside from being hyperthyroid, which I thought was treated when they took half of it out, am healthy to my knowledge. Im just super worried about some neurological disease causing me to have central, which is way harder to treat from what I've read. All in all, I'm mostly ready to start sleeping again.
Currently am in the process of waiting to get a sleep study scheduled, and going to see a pulmonologist on Wednesday. I just wanna get ahead of the curve and get some info on how to deal with sleep apnea in the meantime until I get treated. I hope if I end up on the cpap it provides the relief some say it does. Not sleeping/being afraid to sleep sucks.
Thanks for reading.
