> Except something like 60% of sleep apnea sufferers in the US will never get diagnosed. I used to be one of those people and its only after I switched doctors out of desperation that I was diagnosed.
And even if you are diagnosed, there is not always a lot you can do about it. I was diagnosed with central sleep apnea about a year ago, and tried BiPAP for about six months. It made absolutely no difference to my sleep.
You probably already know this, but BiPAP is not effective for central sleep apnea. You may want to investigate Adaptive Servo Ventilation (ASV), which is far more suitable.
