Nah, it’s just getting old as fuck. Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to just getting old as fuck all.

Wrong answer. Regular sleep disruption is a serious symptom that places the entire body under additional stress and should not be ignored. Furthermore obstructive sleep apnea, one of the most common causes of sleep disruption, is vastly under diagnosed.

Although OSA is a relatively common medical condition, it is believed that more than 85% of patients with clinically significant OSA have never been diagnosed.

And even if it’s not OSA the study will help rule out other issues. As long as you can get insurance to cover it’s absolutely worth the cost. The only drawback is that the study itself is kind of an awkward goat rodeo, and you need to budget some extra time the next morning for a long hot shower to get electrode paste out of your hair.
