I wouldn't be surprised if a LOT of people hoped they had apnea. The alternative was something else probably much more serious. While cpap helps my condition, I only have hypopneas and they only occur when my heart rate has dropped very low. I'm on the path for a pacemaker.

I did. I was hoping so much that I had difficulty falling asleep. Sounds sick, I know. It is not so much that I was hoping to be on CPAP or to have sleep apnea. What I was hoping for was a definitive problem so that a definitive solution could be put in place. A positive test would give me that. Otherwise it is back to tiredness, fatigue and ever increasing doses of anti hypertensive drugs with side affects that guess cause guess what... dizziness, tiredness, fatigue. If I can address all those issues by wearing a mask at night, even for the rest of my life (I'm 30), It's an acceptable deal to me.

My sister had it, and suggested I get tested. I put it off for years, even though my docs asked me to get tested.

My mother had Alzheimer's. I like to think this help me fight the odds.
