I don't have sleep apnea. However, I do have a combination of two sleep disorders. I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy in 1970 and I have been diagnosed and treated for fibromyalgia (FMS) and chronic fatique syndrome (CFS) since the early 90's. None of my specialists or generalists have been able to give me good understandable knowledge on these disorders. However, from my own research I have found it is not uncommon to have multiple sleep disorder diagnoses. Until the research brings us more definitive info, I will continue to read up on, follow-up on, and try all suggested remedies. Good luck to you.
