I finally found some solid information from Harvard regarding the sleep deficit that can exist after years of suffering with sleep apnea. The suggestion was to turn off your alarm and sleep until you wake up naturally. Do this for one to two weeks and you should be waking up earlier and feeling more rested. Feeling more rested can lead to cognitive function improvement. Will it fix the pain and the swollen glands? I don’t know.
From my early twenties on I always had edema in my feet and ankles. The BiPap treatment fixed that in days. DAYS!!! So, could catching up on more sleep fix other seemingly totally unrelated issues? Why not?
Vacation starts tomorrow morning. I really hate sleeping in. It feels like such a waste, but if this gets me back in my feet, it’s nothing but gain.
