Discussed during the presentation was how sleep apnea can exasperate diabetes, hypertension, and cause blood pressure issues.
Professor Aron described how sleep apnea is often not recognized immediately but can sometimes be found through symptoms like:
Daytime fatigue or drowsiness
Decrease in intellect
Behavioral and personality changes
Memory loss
Left untreated, sleep apnea can result in a myriad of health issues, such as:
Cardiac Dysrhythmias
