You may not always feel the effect of I but you either have it or don't. There are two types obstructed which I have. When I fall asleep my tounge collapses in my airway preventing my ability to breath.
The other type is where your brain forgets to tell your body to breath.
I have never taken it seriously untill latly. I wentball these years untill about a year ago id start falling asleep while standing and eventually hurt myself. I am a fat guy and I've always been told it was my diet but I have lost 60 pounds in the last 6 months by just using my.mask.
Point is 97% of the time I don't rem waking up and gasping for air but in my sleep study I never reached past level 2 sleep and out of 8 hours I ft a little more then a total hour of sleep.
Lack of oxygen can damage he brain, it can also affect stress levels which can take affect on re heart.
Man up and spend.the night being observed its one night that could change your entire life.

I don't mind going to the specialist bro. I just doubt that I will have the breathing problem the first time I get the testing procedure done since it tends to happen every 2 weeks or so. I will probably have to go a few times but that's fine with me because I would like to know what the hell is going on. But yeah, I am going to get it checked out though because that's some scary shit.
