I decided to cancel my overnight “sleep study” this week because for the past few weeks I’ve been sleeping better (including on my side, which I haven’t been able to do for almost 2 years). Linda has said she hasn’t heard me gasping for breath in the middle of the night. And after doing some Googling on the subject, I have been trying to avoid many of the apnea triggers, like drinking wine in the late evening. I’m not sure my precautions have made a difference, or if it’s just that sleeping less on my back (another trigger) is the key.
