I have the utmost respect for them. How true it is with the stress alone how their sleep habits are and can effect their sleep, however with sleep apnea that only adds to it. <br /><br />I am a Nurse and used to work nights. I had much difficulty with a sleep pattern that worked for me. I began to fall asleep at work, driving, at the dinner table etc...The dr. thought I had sleep apnea but it wasn't until I became non responsive at the dinner table with my family thinking it was a normal episode until I would not respond at all. I ended up in Critical Care Unit for 3 days and my husband insited for them to check for apnea which he has asked for years. They finally listened I have severe apnea, obstructive,mixed,central w 42 apnea events at normal sleep and 72 at REM. I now have bi-pap. Sleep apnea is not an easy thing to live and do everyday activity.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7517280471926035043.post-37817259623962952872012-01-02T07:32:42.007-05:002012-01-02T07:32:42.007-05:00Sleep apnea results in daytime sleepiness, slow re...<a href="http://www.sleepwellblog.com" rel="nofollow">Sleep apnea</a> results in daytime sleepiness, slow reflexes, poor concentration, and an increased risk of accidents.
