But I think it’s advisable to consult with an ENT specialist about your condition. At the very least, you can find out what really triggers sleep apnea, and get ideas on how you can prevent it.<br /><br /><a href="http://bayareatmjandsleep.com/tmj-tmd/" rel="nofollow">Cynthia Bowers @ Bay Area TMJ & Sleep Center</a><br />Cynthia Bowershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02459275495906540447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-827769867360256958.post-29824805316275355932014-05-28T08:35:02.791-07:002014-05-28T08:35:02.791-07:00Good going!

It's really difficult to find a proper cure for sleep apnea, as it can be caused by a lot of factors. Good thing that you found a solution that works for you. :D<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://plus.google.com/108804464305803906235/about" rel="nofollow">Wallace Tucker @ Robert Kelleher DDS</a><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01153642524711445843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-827769867360256958.post-3639816432884517622014-03-24T23:47:42.149-07:002014-03-24T23:47:42.149-07:00I would like to suggest that you consult to stop s...I would like to suggest that you consult to stop snoring agency as they are providing the service of stop snoring and sleep apnea and I have recently dealt with them which was a great experience with them.<br /><a href="http://stop-snoring.co/" rel="nofollow">stop-snoring.co</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11748158177769657671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-827769867360256958.post-32355380580537037992014-01-11T07:29:38.209-08:002014-01-11T07:29:38.209-08:00A friend had bad sleep apnea and had to use one of...A friend had bad sleep apnea and had to use one of the machines JanKnitz mentioned.

The ONLY way to know if you have apnea in the first place and the degree of apnea , is to be tested--there are people who never snore who have horrible apnea, and people who snore the roof off who don't have apnea which requires treatment. The danger of assuming that you don't have apnea is that you very well might, and untreated apnea leads to a host of medical issues, including messing with your grehlin and insulin levels, which can make your efforts at controlling carbs in the long term very difficult. <br /><br /> Now, you don't have to spend a fortune in a sleep lab setting. There are home tests that can be used, small devices that strap on to your hand and record multiple channels of data including SO2, blood pressure, and more. The trick is finding an outfit who can set you up for that. IF moderate or severe apnea is found, it's also possible to titrate at home on an auto-adjusting CPAP machine. At cpaptalk.com, we see many people who get hold of a machine (yes, there are ways . . . ) and do their own titration because they don't want to line their doctors' pockets either. <br /><br />Think of the expense of untreated apnea down the line. It is worth getting tested if for no other reason than to assure yourself that your zero carb approach is really doing you as much good as you think it is.
