I was athsmatic as a child, and am overweight now. Often I wake up feeling unrested, and I have recently thought that I might suffer from some degree of sleep apnea. This article has given me the push I needed to make an appointment to see the doctor - thanks!

With narcolepsy you can't control when you fall asleep. With sleep apnea, you quit breathing when you are sleeping. Neither are good, of course!

He could fall asleep everywhere, and he did. Behind the wheel, at school, at work etc. But I wonder, is sleep apnea the same as narcolepsy?

To think you can die from it over time is quite shocking. It is great to see that there is actually a cure for it. Wow, I did not realise how serious sleep apnea could actually be.

Sure they feel tired in the morning, but doesn't everyone. It was in fact determined by the Institute of Medicine that about 33% of Americans have some sort of 'sleep difficulties'. Imagine that - one in three. I really liked your article. It's nicely written and very informative. More people should know about sleep apnea and articles like this will spread awareness.
