Effects of Sleep Apnea
The effects of sleep apnea can be mild or severe. Sleep apnea in patients is caused by an obstructive blockage in the airway. This obstructive
blockage will cause you to have difficulty breathing while you are sleeping. Side effects of sleep apnea in patients can include
irritability, low energy level and difficulty breathing. Obstructive sleep apnea affects both you and your partner. Treatment of the sleep apnea syndrome includes changing sleeping habits, using medication or a CPAP
machine. Sleeping on your side may help the effects of snoring.
The side effects of the syndrome can be varied depending on how severe it is. The syndrome usually requires treatment with a CPAP
machine if severe and disruptive. Patients can get treatment with a CPAP machine by obtaining a consultation with a physician for a
prescription for the machine. Using one will generally cure the side effects associated with the problem. This will help you get a
much needed full night’s rest and allow you to awaken refreshed in the morning. You will be able to be more productive and alert during the
day. Your partner will also be able to get a full night’s rest that may have been difficult to do before the condition was treated.
