Hello readers..
Especially my Indian friends living in a country with poor healthcare system, where health care means taking care of sickness only when it's fullblown.
I have obstructive sleep apnea syndrome.
I diagnosed it myself coz nobody had any clue what it was even 5 years ago.
I have visited only one hospital that had a competent sleep technician.
And there is no specialisation course in sleep for a doctor.
I have thought through my illness that if only I had someone to tell me what was happening to me, I would have gotten better faster. I have been experimenting and only through trial and error found the way to diagnose and treat myself.
Now that I have understood something about it and sleep is one important thing going on in everyone's life, that's more important than anything else, I have decided to start writing here about it.
Sleep is one thing we all enjoy and need. You can go 41 days without food, 16 days without water, but only 3 days without sleep.
So if you feel you are always sleepy, if you snore too much or even a little, if you drowse off when driving, if you sleep even when standing up, then this blog is for you.
More to come.
