Sleep Apnea Treatment

Question by Brittany: Could someone please edit this for me? Keep in mind that I am not finished.?
Fourteen years ago, I was born in Sherman, Texas in the WNJ hospital. I weighed seven pounds, three ounces, and I was twenty inches long. I was my parent’s first child, so they were absolutely thrilled. Within thirty minutes, I was diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome which is a condition to which I couldn’t breathe in my sleep. I was asleep in the same hospital room as my mom and the nurse had turned off the volume of the breathing monitor so she could sleep. She woke up in the middle of the night and saw a red light flashing next to my crib, she pressed the call button and a nurse came rushing in. I was brought to the OR, and they shoved a stick down my throat to get out all of the mucus so I could breathe. After that, I had to stay in the hospital for weeks, until my body adjusted and I could breathe well in my sleep.
sorry its in the software catagory, i dont know how it got there. my bad

it seems pretty dramatic but change this phrase “and they shoved a stick down my throat” it sounds so unscientific…

What do you think? Answer below!

I feel like my mind is weak because I had sleep apnea all through school. I am in my mind 20’s and have sleep apnea due to the structure of my body (I am not overweight which is the usual cause). I did ok in school but I just feel like I didn’t absorb everything I needed to. What would you do? I know use C-PAP and have been for a few month and am feeling a lot better.

In about 7 hours of sleep I wake up atleast 5 times. Usually during a dream because I remember them all. Is this racing thoughts or some other kind of mental illness disorder or a sleep disorder of some kind, or both or somthing else? Thanks for the help.

It’s called insomnia.
