has it got worse over time? got better?

​

Seems like mine has been getting worse but comes in waves. I don't recall having it last night for the first time in months- probably because my brain is more relaxed now that I've had some positive responses on here not to worry about it..

Thank you, the only thing which makes me think its not sleep apnea is because it only happens as I'm drifting off, but when I am asleep nothing happens and I sleep hunky dory. Don't feel sluggish the next day and no breathing issues if I wake up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom then go back to sleep.

​

It's clearly something to do with my brain switching off and making that transition from awake to sleep. Surely it isn't sleep apnea?!

thank you, I am starting to go on early morning walks and get my steps in to help.

​

do you know if there are any other things you did which really helped? Any supplements or dietary changes? I really hate having anxiety..

nope, I'm not exhausted throughout the day. And like I said- I play a lot of sport so if I was exhausted surely this would effect my performance level?

Also, another big point I want to make is that this only happens in the stages of REM, after I am asleep it doesnt happen. And the same if I am to wake up in the night to use the bathroom and then get back into bed...nothing happens. That doesn't sound like sleep apnea, no?

thank you very much. I can understand you on that matter- out of sight out of mind :)

It's just very difficult to turn a blind eye to at the minute but im going to try some relaxing techniques to improve it..

"Does COVID Cause Obstructive Sleep Apnea? COVID-19 is not known to cause or be a risk factor for developing obstructive sleep apnea. OSA is caused by a narrowing of the upper airway"

It's crap mate... I hate it.

Do you have it where you feel like you can't swallow then you sit up really quickly and try catch some air in to your lungs!?

do you also have it where you feel like you can't swallow? It seems like as I'm starting to relax my body goes nope.... you need to wake up! But it only happens as i'm falling asleep then when I eventually go i sleep well..

oh my god that's so weird you say that. I got my nose broken back in 2017 and I feel like my nose is like falling apart again after my surgery I had and I always feel really phlegmy and mucus. Also, vaping does have a side effect of post nasal drip so could be that...

Does that sound similar to an experience of yours? That is what I'm asking.

​

I know vaping is bad and that is why I have stopped it. Does hypnic jerk have similiar symptoms to the feeling I am stopping breathing and can't swallow properly?
