Common effects of sleep apnea include daytime fatigue, a slower reaction time, and vision problems.
Dr. Jacalyn Nelson joins the show to offer help to those suffering with apnea in the night and the resulting daytime fatigue. There are treatments and adherence to those treatments is key to success.
