09/17/2013 ***Before you decide to give up on your CPAP therapy, be aware of the dangers of untreated Sleep Apnea*** Many of you may be aware that Sleep Apnea can cause daytime sleepiness, irritability, and even increased health risks, but do you know just how serious the health risks associated with Sleep Apnea really are? “30% of accidents involving commercial truck drivers are sleep related” “Sleep Apnea increases insulin resistance in patients who also suffer from diabetes, making it more difficult to control blood sugar levels.” “People suffering with untreated sleep apnea are at twice the risk of having a stroke and five times the risk of having a fatal heart attack.” (The above quotes have come from a trusted web resource, with other helpful information regarding Sleep Apnea. You can view this website here: apnea/sleep-apnea-risk.htm ) If you or someone you know believes they may suffer from undiagnosed Sleep Apnea, talk with a physician immediately to avoid serious-or even deadly consequences. You can even recommend they try a Home Sleep Test which we have available on our website here: cpapsupplyusa/home-sleep-test.aspx
