    Yes if you are having sleep apnea or know someone who has a moderate to severe case go see a specialist immediately.

  2. Matt A says:

    During the apneic periods, the heart rate gets faster. So at night there is no correlation.

    If you have obstructive sleep apnea your more likely to have tachycardia. Your probably overweight so every actvity including sleeping takes more effort. You might be refering to a vagal response which is possible if you gag yourself out of an apniec period it doesn’t last long and that’s the least of your worries. Sleep apnea causes a bunch of health problems.

    yes and people can die from both.
