The typical treatment for sleep apnea is a device to deal with the symptom not efforts to deal with the cause/s.
Someone close to me showed me their dental device which made a huge difference to his and his wife’s sleep quality. See https://somnomed.com/au/products/somnodent/
But he showed me the device over his breakfast of a large orange juice, eggs on toast plus a spreadable (butter and vegetable seed oil), followed by a coffee and milk. (Of course I’ll follow up on the diet.)
I suspect undiagnosed insulin resistance (excess waistline) and I’m sure his GP did not measure or mention waist or get fasting glucose or insulin levels measured. That’s too much of a rabbit hole for time-starved GPs who are so cholesterol myopic. Is this a typical GP’s omission?
