Publisher's Note
Sleep apnea syndrome is the phantom that disrupts the lives of millions of unsuspecting victims. Their sleep is repeatedly disturbed by snoring, by choking halts in breathing, & by gasping efforts to breathe. Their struggle to breathe during sleep is a major cause of daytime sleepiness, accidents, poor health, lost years of productivity & happiness, & even death. This handbook by a doctor & a patient guides people with sleep apnea & their families to take advantage of dramatically effective medical treatment. They explain the meaning of snoring & the mechanics of sleep apnea as well as how to recognize it, obtain a diagnosis, treat it, & overcome social, physical or emotional obstacles to recovery. "This is a sleep apnea self-help manual that even professionals could find useful."--Suzan E. Jaffe, Ph.D., A.R.N.P., Clinical Director, Sleep Disorders Center.
