AAS and sleep apnea

[ceo]

If you have excessive daytime sleepiness, hypertension, impaired cognition (or memory problems) or anything like that, an AHI of 9 would actually be considered more serious, and you're getting screwed by your insurance company.

The scale your study was measured on would be helpful to know... there can be a huge variation between using 3% destaurations with or without arousals versus 4% desaturations with or without arousals.

Yeah, I have none of those signs/sxs. My insurance hasn't screwed me in regards to this. Everything has been my decision so far. I am actually doing another study this week to see if it's any worse. I've got my eye on it.

I'm glad to hear the surgey worked. My pulmonologist said it's kinda hit or miss, 50/50 if it ends up working. I don't think I could stand the C-PAP either!

Of course they say that. ALl they do is push that damn CPAP down your throat. I think they were dissappointed the surgery worked for me.

which specific surgery did you have? There are a handful, most people snore less but still have some obstruction afterwards... The pillar procedure (what the OP was referring to) has a handful of NIH studies going on right now.

I had the uvulaplasty and tonsilectomy. Before the surgery I had 45 disruptions in an hour so that put me on the severe end. When I went in for my follow up sleep study I didnt qualify to have the CPAP mask put on me. I was in the normal range.

I still had a bunch of episodes during the night which they attributed to anxiety. Just woke up for no reason. But that probably has more to do with knowing your being watched all nite.

I haven't been to the ENT yet because my OSA is so mild. It's only a partial airway obstruction and only 9 times an hour. Anything at this point would be elective as well and not covered by insurance. So, I'm just waiting to see if it gets worse.

I normal people have something like 5 or less, so that just puts your slightly above that.

Id lay off on eating any goat tongue and heavy shrugs or that may get worse bro.lol

Are you messing around man? I've been eating them shits since I was a kid and I do heavy shrugs as well but I never put the two things together. I got a 20" neck as well.

Sleep apnea can be from lots of things not just roids.

Sounds like roids caused his. Common side effect of roids.

Yes.lol My friend always does this impersanation where he flares out his traps and tucks his chin and says the secret is to eat goat tongues in a deep voice.
