I have severe obstructive sleep apnea and NEVER snore. That's why noone ever thought to check me for sleep apnea. I'd had a laundry list of complaints for 25 years and noone could ever figure out what was wrong. Then, I was planning a cosmetic procedure so as routine preop tests cause I have fatigue, I had to do a sleep study. Results: Severe obstructive sleep apnea...even the sleep study notes 0 snores. I can't believe I've lived w untreated sleep apnea for 25 yrs and not 1 doctor w my list of complaints ever thought to do a sleep study and instead act as if I was a drug seeker or hypochondriac. Nope...found out about the apnea just yesterday, have gotten progressively more irked about the way I've been treated for 25 yrs by doctors just cause I would answer no when asked about snoring. I'm 39 but the symptoms started when I was 14 and have continued my whole life. I dropped out of high school cause I couldn't wake up in the morning. I've struggled w extreme fatigue, anxiety, depression, feeling generally ill all the time and just every task was such a struggle, general body and joint aches, headaches, etc I'd finally just accepted a couple years ago after one doc ran a million tests and found nothing and another acted disgusted w me as if I was a drug seeker asking for meds to stay asleep and meds to stay awake lol but I couldn't stay asleep, had trouble falling asleep, then was exhausted all day! I finally had accepted nothing was wrong w me that I must be weak and lazy or something. Smh

Hi Dr Queen he did nice work on my sinuses! love him.

I was diagnosed with sleep apena in 2018.My AHI was 30 with snoring. I lost 25 lbs and my AHI dropped to 7, but my oxygen saturation was 85%. So disappointed I needed to continue to use the C PAP device. Is there anything I can do to increase my oxygen levels? thanks
