Change your lifestyle mate, still got hope
What's your height and weight? Start from there

Usually sebab gemok.

Nah bra sleep apnea usually have complaints one.
If obesity doesn't directly cause it, it definitely exacerbates the condition.
Being gemok is never healthy.

And cultivate active lifestyle.

Not just eat sleep.

Had it almost every single night despite normal bmi.

Quit smoking and it aint no more.

173cm
95KG

This is what ENT specialist told me,
Research papers say the same also. (if die die can't accept this, nothing can say or discuss already)
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5181619/

but obese do bring a much higher risk to have sleep apnea.

the ENT specialist calculated,
Current has 62 AHI,
even my weight drop to 70kg, i will still have 32 AHI which i will still have Sleep Apnea problem.


some ENTs specialists on youtube share that tongue and tonsil exercise could help relieve sleep apnea problems.

normal weight also can get ..


could be due to tonsil , facial configuration also can plays a part

i have seen someone that is normal weight or got a little bit of stomach(like just love handle) have AHI of over 100.. scary

Easy way to see if u have high risk of sleep apnea is to do STOP BANG questionairre.. just google it.

to conclusively confirm it,

do a partial sleep study (level 3) or if u banyak duit or complicated case get a polysomnography(psg or full sleep study which is level 1/2)

from there can conclusively know what is ur condition

This. CPAP is the gold standard treatment already. Others like surgery and losing weight may help, but unless your apnea is very mild, you will still need to use CPAP after surgery and losing weight.

which cpap machine TS is getting and how much does it cost?

Resmed AirSense 10 AutoSet
SGD2000

Drop till 75kg
Even if it still persist, trust me your health will be much better and as u say 62 vs 32.

what you say 100% true.
no matter how obese is not healthy.

I DONT NEED your googled answer. I'm asking TS for his/her actual experience which is invaluable.

i super jelly a guy i know with this issue. he can sleep anywhere anytime within 10 seconds.
nighttime saw him choke and wake up and then snore within 10 seconds
i go surgery the surgeon sedate also i cannot fall asleep after counting down weh i bet.

i have uploaded the CPAP reading (PDF) at the first post.
is an example of the sleeping result yesterday night.

Sorry for being blunt, but you must be obese.

Loss some weight. Its going to help, a lot. Come see me for the weight management medication.

im just answering question on how usually they going to diagnose u with sleep apnea since i do work with the ent and respi dr in regards to sleep study and cpap.. im sorry if u think its "googled answer" thus may be wrong. im saying google the stop bang questionaire since usually dr would also ask the same type of question from that questionaire before referring for a sleep study test.

you stop breathing for a few seconds in your sleep, that's very dangerous

this is the same questionnaire i did when i first visit ENT specilist.

this could help, my score is 10.


but this test is not 100% accurate to detect Sleep Apnea, cause not everyone is able to answer it accurately.
