Over the past 5 years, the masks have improved and more specialists are starting out at low pressures, allowing an auto-adjusting machine to determine pressures. My husband failed initially and remained off for years, as they set too high for starting pressures and gave him a full-face mask. Please ...

The gene is rs12506228; the bad allele is A. The result was in a "FoundMyFitness" report. From the ad for FMF I thought it would tell me what supplements would be best for me but that wasn't what it turned out to be at all. WhatNext, I have the same rs12506228 A/A gene (on top of ApoE4/4 ...

Back in 2014, I posted on sleep apnea's correlation with Apoe4 (https://www.apoe4.info/forums/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=366&p=2999#p2999). They discovered that those with Apoe4 were thinner, not the typical body type associated with sleep apnea. Dr. Bredesen mentions on his cognoscopy list to rule...

In the early days of this lengthy thread, there was a small French study analyzing the decreased mortality with HRT correlated to the estrogen receptor SNPs. Turns out my 101 y/o, 3/4, Met/Val mom hit the jackpot, correlating with 0.6 mortality using HRT, marking over five decades of estrogen. Dr. ...

Plumster, you found exactly the model that would monitor and record your oxygen levels overnight. My home sleep study was "normal" but when I viewed the report the oxygen levels decreased to 82% ; so definitely review your report. My lab study had oxygen levels down to 65%, before they wok...

This is a really interesting episode of the Broken Brain Podcast with sleep medicine dentist Dr. Mark Burhenne. Circular, thank you so much for posting this talk. I listened to it yesterday and it is very relevant for me. I have a scalloped tongue (I learned from a dentist last week) and tongue tie...

Sealy has posted the ResMed devise I have (it's the APAP "AirSense for Her" with the flower design).

Magnesium L-Threonate knocks me out. It’s a variant of magnesium that crosses the blood-brain barrier. Within 20 minutes of taking it I start yawning. Sometimes I wake up and it’s morning. My dreams are vivid. I’ve had trouble sleeping for years, I had obstructive sleep apnea and didn’t know. Now w...

WhatNext, I am your same age, small body frame, high HDL, 3/4, previous widow...but I am on a very minimal dose of simvastatin. Despite a zero calcium scan at age 64, my lp(a) is double normal and have two other cardiac risk factors (hypertension and sleep apnea). Unexpectedly, I experienced side ef...
