But, if a person has sleep apnea then does it happen EVERY night?? Because if it doesnt, then what of they test him on a night that it doesnt happen??
@Wildspiritthecat hmm...Im just wondering because I know that there are times when I can feel it happen to me..But I dnt know if it happens to me every night..
my neighbor actually died from this.He lived alone and one day just held his breath too long and never woke up.He wasnt found till 2 days later by his brother
Sleep Apnea is a serious issue. People who suffer from it snore really loud. It sounds like a grizzly bear is sleeping in your home. Like Hoopz said, 1 day Shaq stopped breathing in his sleep. That happens sometimes and If you don't get treatment for it, you're taking a risk of possibly dying in your sleep one day. Many people have sleep apnea. The oxygen mask might be uncomfortable at first, but once you get used to it, it's like putting on your shoes everyday.
Many big people have sleep apnea...I'm guessing prob 70% or more of NFL offensive and some defensive linemen for example. My bro has it and using the CPAP is so annoying to him. If I were Shaq I'd maybe try surgery first since he has the money and time, even though its not 100% effective.
I invite anyone suffering from sleep apnea to view my "CPAP No More! video, my personal story of how I discovered an alternate manner of sleeping that does not involve using CPAP. This is NOT an advertisement, but a personal testimony. Cheers.
this is just nonsense. Every apnea sufferer I know can not use the respiratory device for more than a few months. You end up getting less sleep with it than you did without it.
Props up to Hoopz! Shaq was married before and his ex-wife didn't pick this up-that he has sleep apnea or the snoring and him not breathing in his sleep?? Wow! Don't know what kind of person she is or if they are good for each other but she helped him in this; sleep apnea causes risks for cardiovascular system and weakens the heart.
@churchboy12 She is the girl that was on the "Flavor of love" show. Flavor flav gave her that nick name Hoopz on his show. Her real name is Nicole Alexander
Alexander was the winner of the first season of Flavor of Love. [1]
In 2008, Alexander also was a contestant on the VH1 reality show, I Love Money. After defeating Joshua "Whiteboy" Gallander at the final challenge, she was named the $250,000 winner.[
DATS BAD FOR ANY HUMAN BEING, SHAQ GOT 2 GET ON TOP OF FACTS BUT THEN WE KNOW MAN CAN'T LIVE WITH OUT A FEMALE BUT HOOPZ IS NOT THE LAST FEMALE ON EARTH BRO.
My brother has sleep apnea and he is finding it very difficult to find a mask that is comfortable! He's 17 so maybe he's just not used to it but he really doesn't like the mask. The kind of mask he has though goes around his head and he has tubes. Was the kind that they tested Shaq with has tubes? Because if it doesn't I think my brother would find it more comfortable if it just went around his nose!
I've been diagnosed with sleep apnea, and it's hard to live with. The complications are very over whelming at times. Without the proper treatment, it makes it hard to hold a regular job without feeling exhausted the moment you punch-in for the day. Glad to see them make a video shining light on this topic...it's a serious thing.
@jcfab Not everyone believes in god bubba, you live your life the way your think it should be lived and he'll live his life how he wants. I don't go around telling Christians how to live their lives even though I believe it not to be true. It's annoying as hell when religious people try enforcing their beliefs on others, even if all you mean is well.
Uh, for Shaq it's a bit different than most people because he's a tall guy so of course his organs will be strained at older ages, but most people will be around 6 ft so they just have to keep their weight down. Of course, Harvard medical school could care less since they want to make as much money as possible off things that are curable through natural means.
