I managed to get my diagnosis for obstructive sleep apnea (moderate) from the at-home monitor.
I thought for sure it was gonna be a bust and that I'd have to go in and get rigged up like some Ghost in the Shell shit, because I remember being awake a lot.
but they got what they needed. I started sleeping much better under treatment (started like 6 weeks ago). it's been a dramatic shift for me. I feel more awake and seem to have better recall, I'm more positive/less irritable, make better/healthier decisions early in the morning, I think I'm losing weight and my resting BP has gone down.
a good night's sleep is the realist shit.
the older I get, the more the basics seem to be critical: eat fiber, stretch, walk like 15-20 mins, and get a good night's sleep. I'm not an athlete, but when I do those things I feel pretty good. that's an everyday layup I can go for.
