Sleep apnea
Is sleep apnea a common side effect? I am 13 months out from 35 Rad and 2 Cisplatin treatments.
My ENT sent me to a sleep lab for testing. CPAP machine has been recommended. I think I am getting better and not quite ready to admit defeat.
If anyone else has had experience with this, I would appreciate any thoughts.

I don't have trouble with it...
But I wouldn't be surprised if people who didn't have sleep apnea before could have some issues after with all the changes that take place in the throat. Could go from not snoring to snoring a lot. Seems logical.
CPAP doesn't seem to be too big a deal...lots of people use it and it seems to do what it's meant for.
