My husband snored and was sent for a sleep study...they woke him after and hour and told him to go home and get a cpap machine. Whatever else they told him, scared him because he is 100% compliant with use of the machine.
One of the leading causes of death in women is heart attack and sleep apnea is often a symptom of impending trouble...please tell your doctor about this and look into a sleep study. You may be saving your life!
