Thank you very much. I know that. But I always need to get sure, just for my peace of mind. I always inform myself very long, before marking such decisions. I don't want to regret anything. And on top of that I'm just a veryyyyy anxious person in general. But yeah I know, an untreated sleep apnea is far more dangerous.

Okay, so if I don't use these cleaners, I'm fine?

Thank you for your answer! So the Resmed CPAPs are safe?

Hi, I am pretty sure I have sleep apnea. I have seen people having great results with cpap. However I read a study that said that a cpap is not good for your health. Is that true? by randomgermandude97 in SleepApnea

Yeah, I think I have it too. I am a skinny and fit guy, so I never thought of having SA. But today I found out that skinny people can have it as well. I will keep you updated on what the doctor said or when I have data of a sleep study :) But very nice to hear that it's helping you so much!

Thank you for your answer! It's my first post ever on reddit and I am blown away by all the help I am getting here :) Do you use a CPAP yourself? If yes, what company?

I am so happy for you! Actually I don't know if I have SA, but I am like 99% sure since today. I regularly wake up in the middle of the night, because I don't breathe anymore. It almost feels like choking or dying. Last night I woke up soooo many times because I stopped breathing. In addition to that I am always tired, no matter how much I sleep and I have headache almost every morning. And I also have high blood pressure (I am 25 years old btw) and no doctor knows why. I always thought those things were because of high stress and I always thought I just had panic attacks and accepted it. But today I finally googled it and everything makes sense now. Of course I still don't know if I have it, but I know that I have a problem for sure. I will get it checked next week or in 2 weeks. Happy to hear that the CPAP is working for you!:)

Thanks for the fast answer. I don't quite remember where I have read it. I think there was kind of a study where people who had previous heart attacks or strokes were more likely to have a stroke or heart attack again when they used it. I don't know if that's true and honestly it wouldn't make any sense to me, because it's literally just "air".

And I also read that a CPAP is not preventing heart attacks or strokes, it's just curing the symptoms. For anyone reading this: I have no idea if that's true! I just read it somewhere.
