It does mention that sleep apnea can be used to disqualify you.
quote
"There are many conditions that interfere with oxygen exchange and may result in incapacitation, including emphysema, chronic asthma,
carcinoma, tuberculosis, chronic bronchitis and sleep apnea. If the medical examiner detects a respiratory dysfunction, that in any way is likely
to interfere with the driver’s ability to safely control and drive a commercial motor vehicle, the driver must be referred to a specialist for further
evaluation and therapy."
