If you have been diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and are unusually
tired during the
day, you may have a real medical condition called Excessive Daytime Sleepiness
(EDS). OSA, the
most common form of sleep apnea, is a disorder that may change the way your brain
sends signals
that keep you awake during the day. Even if you're using your CPAP* machine at
night, you could
still be extremely tired during the day.
If you think you may have Excessive Daytime Sleepiness due to
Sleep Apnea,
talk with your doctor today and ask about your
treatment
options.
*CPAP = continuous positive airway pressure.
