I think Union Carbide might still have some. They only sell in bulk. You need to purchase enough to wipe out a whole city. Its old stock, leftovers from the 1980s.

massive doses of Radiation work well. But its a slow end.

There is no pill or easy fix. I had UPPP surgery and deviated septum surgery to avoid it but still ended up on cpap. I applaud your reluctance to avoid cpap or surgery but have to say I would not recommend Chris's suggestion of cyanide. The insurance company won't pay off your survivers, possibly causing them financial hardship. It will also deprive your loved ones of watching you suffer from chronic exhaustion a while longer leading to a few other goodies like hypertension, diabetes, stroke, depression, etc. These are the real consequences of not treating your problem and they will happen to you. The good news is that your insurance will cover you to treat these illnesses until you lose it when you are fired for poor performance at work because you are simply too tired to do your job any more. By the way, if you are suffering from sleep apnea, unless you are very wealthy don't attempt to buy more life insurance. The life insurers consider our condition to be very serious, and so should you. Seek treatment! It may be a little difficult to adjust to but it sure beats the alternatives.

Well, if it were that simple, why would we be using CPAP? I know its hard to think that you have to be hooked up to a hose, but there is much worse things...

If there were such a pill we couldn't afford them. Imagine paying hundreds monthly when you can purchase a top shelf cpap for a few months worth of pills. Even the DMEs would look like angels compared to the drug companies. LOL.

Folks see right through these posts. I just wish there was a way
we could get them deleted quickly before they turn into a nightmare.

I mean who would use PAP when there is TAP?
