When I use the CPAP machine will all my ailments go away like diabetes,irregular heart beat and hypertension?

Answer


In general, almost all the side effects from sleep apnea should disappear if you have a successful CPAP treatment.

You can read more about CPAP benefits here.

However, if your health problems are severe, you may need help with additional treatments for your specific problem.

For example, the treatment with CPAP has not uniformly been shown to improve glucose tolerance or insulin resistance.

Here is a study about the effect of CPAP on diabetes.

But CPAP will definitely help you to improve your quality of life and eliminate the risk of death from the most severe side effects.

I hope it helps. Don't be afraid to comment back.
