Falling asleep at 10,000 ft.

I was a naval aviator. I was so tired I’d be falling sleep while flying the airplane.I was in a meeting with a four-star admiral and chief of naval operations and I fell asleep and snored.

Finding a cool way to fight sleep apnea

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea in high school. I didn’t want to take a CPAP machine to college, ’cause that’s not cool.

I had surgery to reshape the jaw.

An athlete learning to adapt to sleep apnea

I was a decathlete at school, I was a national champion tri-athlete, I played collegiate soccer.  Sleep apnea can affect anyone, whether you’re physically fit or not.

I didn’t think I fit the profile

I thought, I can’t have sleep apnea: I’m 40, I’m a woman, I’m a healthy weight – sleep apnea is something that occurs to older, heavyset men.

I was so ingrained in the idea that I didn’t fit the profile.

One cause for many symptoms

I was dealing with chronic pain, extreme fatigue and sleepiness, memory and concentration problems, frequent illness, and heavy snoring. I didn’t know they could have a common root cause.
