And does it cause left sided HF or RHF??

My son has obstructive sleep apnea and needs open-heart surgery to help get rid of the pressure in his lungs, I have heard that having a breathing tube in for the amount of time that the surgery is will cause complications when trying to remove it after…. is this information valid??

I found out I have severe sleep apnea..I have been exhausted,headaches,tired all day for 5 years..im 38…my ankles and legs swelled up really bad & I lost leg hair on my left leg..I had blood tests and no other health problems..Doctor says my rapid weight gain is probably from sleep apnea???

i hear sleep apnea can be dangerous and i am a GAD (generalized anxiety disorder) sufferer, a heard it is a very small chance it can kill you during your sleep with it’s symptoms of pausing breath, but i hear your brain wakes you up to alert you from danger and to get your breath back, is that true?, but i don’t get that problem during the night waking up gasping for breath but i don’t know if i snore loudly but i seem to be really worried about this and it is giving me lack of sleep thinking if i do have it or not

so my chest hurts if i llike bend my shoulders in and flex ..i havent worked out and its been like 3 weeks ..it doenst hurt unless i flex like that but i dont work out at all sow hat could cause this..i have no money and no insuance so dont tell me to go to the doctor,….what can i do …its like a 4 on the painn scale.

sometimes i have lucid dreams where i am fully aware that i am dreaming and i can control them i try to make them last as long as possible when i am having them but they all end up the same,i end up having to realize in the dream that i am dreaming and wake myself up because i am not breathing and i try to move my body and can’t it seems like i am looking at my body and i trying to move it but im not i am just dreaming which is really weird and then when i finally get myself to actually wake up i gasp for air. i don’t no if lose of oxygen can cause lucid dreams or if lucid dreams can cause such problems. i used to huff paint and have been wondering if there’s a conection bettween my lucid dreams and sleep apnea or if mabye i could have caused a lower brain stem lesion from it, is any of this possible? any imfo would help i am majorly concerned thank you

Okay, so last year I miscarried at 6 weeks – but I didn’t even find out I was pregnant for sure until I was in the middle of misscarrying (took tests religiously everday for weeks, never registered positive until 1 day into the miscarriage) – if you read back on my questions about a year ago, I had about 10 x-rays to my stomach around implantation, and 3 weeks later began to bleed heavily. I blamed the x-rays all this past year, up until the other day when I got to thinking about SLEEP APNEA and pregnancy…..there is a chance I am pregnant right now, but this had NEVER crossed my mind until recently. It would make sense right?? A woman quits breathing 59 times an hour while she’s sleeping – that’s a part of EVERY minute, every hour….so it’s cutting off oxygen to the placenta…..anyone ever stopped and thought about this before??….Now I’m almost 100 percent sure it caused my miscarriage last year, and am terrified this time around. If I am pregnant I would be 4 1/2 – 5 weeks and I don’t go back for my cpap (breathing maching) fitting until this friday, and then it will take another 10 days after that before I can get my machine from the Medical Supply store…that’s IF sleep apnea caused the miscarriage a year ago….what do you think?
