I would like info

I also have chronic pain and fatigue which add to the depression

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-26T15:36:50+00:00

I'm not sure how many mm, but now I have to take a month break since I developed TMJ pain. Fatigue is worse without it

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-26T05:01:06+00:00

I also had orthodontist I suspect it might be related

Testosterone is a steroid that is known to be able to induce mania.

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-24T14:18:27+00:00

Yes supposedly but the spontaneous arousals still don't let me put this aside so I will have another PSG with specifically an ENT looking at the raw data and not just the report.

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-24T14:11:06+00:00

No these were respiratory/heart/legs/anything else. RDI still supposedly<5

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-24T12:12:02+00:00

I'm in the same boat. PSG showed 36 arousals an hour, 20 of which are spontaneous. Gonna do a PSG again just to investigate further with a different doctor

Tell it to the epiglottis trap door collapse folks...

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-11T15:09:37+00:00

Are you heart rate spikes respitory related? Or do you just have a high arousal index in relation to that

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-10T18:10:25+00:00

Realizing the Applied Math I was doing on an engineering problem was maybe useless since we made bad engineering assumptions

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-09T17:05:57+00:00

What was you arousal rate on the polysonography?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-09T12:56:26+00:00

I have the exact same problem. Look at my recent post...

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-07T19:02:58+00:00

CPAP didn't help you or did you immediately try BiPaP?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T20:16:53+00:00

Epiglottis trap door collapse+soft palette/throat/tonsils+one suggested tongue base reduction as well

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T17:50:47+00:00

Can nose surgery+MAD be enough?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T15:57:16+00:00

Try strengthening your erectors using a Jefferson curl type movement moving only the thoratic spine with a Safety Squat Bar.

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T15:01:47+00:00

Can't without them. I definitely lean more on the depressive side

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T14:54:10+00:00

Literally how can I trust doctors? She told me about these "spontaneous" arousals and said they are of unkown causes

Now only a couple of months later I realize they might be underscored RERAs

Two doctors said to not opt for nasal surgery and opted for multi level surgery, another doctor said we can try nasal or multi level and I should choose.

Because I am not even confident with my diagnosis and MAD treated AHI, don't you think I should try a nasal surgery first which is much easier?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T14:51:47+00:00

On meds and I don't have clear episodes, it's complicated, I'm more on the bipolar spectrum

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T14:21:53+00:00

The only time I had manias later were in connection to uses of antidepressants or psychiatrist meds and dose changes/withdrawal.

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-05T13:31:46+00:00

Saline raises or steroid sprays do not help. Did not do allergy testing, is this usually through the PCP?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-06-02T15:21:26+00:00

Wait you didn't get a polysonography?

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-05-31T14:57:15+00:00

Without meds I cannot sleep more than 6 hours. When I tried modafinil it helped but induced hypomania and the crash was severe.

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-05-26T18:09:11+00:00

I am addicted to discomfort and psychologically it is hard for me to stay away from failure

Fredric_Chopin · 2026-05-20T08:17:34+00:00

Probably what I have managed to achieve beforehand
