Sleep Apnea Advice
by: Grandma

Hello Lisa,

I totally understand what you are asking about because one of my best friends for over 50 years has been suffering with Sleep Apnea for many years. She has gone through all the tests and has a machine to use at night, although I don't think she uses it. I realize the medical field can't seem to come up with what causes Sleep Apnea or how to cure it. I know how awful it is trying to stay awake during the day, my friend had to stop driving for awhile because she would fall asleep when stopped at a red light. We'll be talking on the phone and suddenly she's sound asleep.

I wish I had the answers for you and my friend but this is a real mystery. But, I did suggest she start taking magnesium and vitamin B-12 and this really did seem to help her, but it didn't cure her. My advice is to try the magnesium but only take it in the evening since it does relax the muscles and promote sleep. I'd suggest you take vitamin B-12 in the morning. The magnesium seemed to help her rest better during the night and the B-12 seemed to give her energy during the day. I'm sure you're to the point where you'll try anything and this won't hurt you even if you are on medication.
