If you have sleep apnea now, you will always have this sleep disorder?

Thank you!

Answer

Sleep Apnea is not a simple disorder, like a headache or when you have a cold. It doesn't matter what type of apnea disorder you have: obstructive, central or mixed. This disorder will not disappear in time, but the sleep apnea side effects will get worse if you don't have a treatment.

Fortunately, there are many types of treatments to treat sleep apnea. However, it's very important to know exactly what are the causes and the severity of your sleep disorder. Only then the doctors will choose for you the most appropriate therapy.
