There was an article I read yesterday, but I can't find it now about apnea causing short term memory loss, but unlike enlarged hearts, and some other things, CPAP therapy did not improve memory loss.

I too have memory loss and word association problems - I believe that these are directly related to apnea

I vote that the overuse of Emoticons ( ) be banned.

It's extremely irritating reading, and gives the impression that a 10 year old is the author.

My Dr. said that the memory loss is reversible. Although sometimes I don't know if I put a lot of trust into what Dr.'s say or know, I hope he's right. I didn't know CPAP therapy improved these other things, so that's refreshing to hear.
