Wouldn't losing weight help with sleep apnea problems? Serious question.

I just read that it's a vicious cycle. You get over weight, you can get apnea. Having apnea you get less sleep and gain weight.
So, why not lose as much weight as possible. As soon as possible? I know someone who did just that and is OK, now.

Depends on the person. Obesity can certainly cause or exacerbate apnea but isn't the only contributor or cause.

Muck is right. When I was diagnosed I was told that my sleep apnea was caused by a few factors. Mainly that my tongue is set back in my mouth and in addition I have a low roof mouth. Those combination of factors lead to my sleep apnea more than my weight.

Just readin this thread sure tells me who is NOT having affairs...

cuz if you guys are peeling paint and causing drywall to crack when you you doze off...
you ain't sleepin with the hotties :pirate1: .. :rofl::slappy:


BTW I also read where the most common tell tale sign is jawbone structure... the guys that have a more rounded jawbone are most common to having sleep apnea.. cuz bottom line, it's that flappy thing covering the airpipe that is the root of it.. and the folks with the very defined jawbones don't have the problem... weight exacerbates it... but only if you're already predisposed to having apnea in the first place

Net net.. take a look at your parents... cuz if one of them snores, you have a 50% chance of having apnea

You just proved you've never had an affair.

If you're having affair you ain't sleepin' with the hottie anyways....someone has to go home to a spouse.

You are saying ignore violations of your insurer's duty to you today because in the future you might have a plan that does not allow you to redress a violation of your rights at all...?:biggrin:

Nope, wasn't suggesting ignoring violations at all. Fight for your rights...just don't delude yourself into thinking a government takeover of health care will get rid of such violations. It'll only reduce your options. :)

ive had 2 6 hour sleep studies performed. both have shown that i have moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea (ie 35 to 40 sleep disruptions per hour) . yet thus far i have not snored once during the 12 hours i have been monitored.

im trying to get my gf to believe that means i don't snore and she is imagining it. don't think she's buying it though.
