Suggest Remedies For Mild Sleep Apnea And Fatigue
Hi, After reporting that I felt fatigued all the time, I went through a sleep study which revealed a minor case of sleep apnea. Last November, I was put on a CPAP machine and have been told my nightly incidents are virtually gone. Great! I m still tired all the time. I m 48, run 15 miles a week and do not smoke or drink excessively. Thoughts?

Hello,
I would advise you to do some tests to make sure all is well. These would be:
- CBC and ERS
- TSH and FT4
- basic metabolic profile, including glucose levels
- spirometry, ECG and a chest x-ray
If the tests come out normal then anxiety can be the cause of your symptoms and you may need treatment for this.
I hope this answers your query.
I remain at your disposal for further medical assistance.
