Sleep apnea

[Archives1]

I was wondering if anyone else suffers from sleep apnea - some of the literature seems to link it with bedwetting.

I do suffer from sleep apnea but wear a C-PAP at night. It has drastically reduced the number of episodes of sleep apnea I experience and does seem to help.
Good Luck with everything.

I was just diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and will be fitted for a CPAP soon.I'm sure that has something to do with my incontinence.

I use a cpap machine - has sorted the sleep apnea - but I still pee in my sleep

After getting to experience the at-home version of apnea testing, my doctor invited me in for an overnight test. What fun getting all wired up from head to calves with electrodes only to get plugged in to test equipment and then try to sleep entangled in wires and such. The best part, NOT! was having to call for the attending nurse to unplug me when I had to take a leak. Then stumbling out to the hall to the lavatory with a rat’s nest of wires hanging off me and then trying not to pee on them while standing over the bowl! JEEZ!! Where the hell are WiFi and Bluetooth when you need ‘em?
Anyway, I hardly slept in 7 hours (or so it seemed) and now await the doctor’s analysis. What a process!!!

Lol, sorry you had to endure that. I was lucky enough to just have to do the home test.

I feel your pain. However, I thought it was so bad it was almost funny.

Oh my....looks like nasa is missing a test subject.

YES! A fellow test subject! Did ya feel like the inspiration for Mary Shelley or what?

If you really want to mess with them move all the wires in different positions

@jrpoorman
A very funny thought, but than I would have had to do it again!

Do you remember the first time you looked in the mirror and saw what you looked like.
I will never forget that moment!

Had Sleep Apnea way before incontinence. Waking up in the sleep clinic after having an actual night of sleep was a revelation. Had a couple sleep sutdies since (Medicare demands periodic "proof" you have Apnea, apparently). I was wired, but NEVER like Golden Roadie. Maybe you need a better clinic?
CPAP made/makes a huge difference, but I've never seen a connection with IC. I'm lucky. Mostly i wake before it's too late. Mostly.

I was incontinent before diagnosed with sleep apnea. Once I started using a cpap I slept better and then switched to diapers at night from Depends (I was getting up and changing).

Yes, although I think I need another study since it is not working as good as it used to.
