Sleep Apnea And Heart Disease
Dr. Jonathan Fialkow, Deputy Chief of Cardiology at Miami Cardiac and Vascular Institute, says there are some studies that say you are 45 times more likely to have some cardiac event when you have sleep apnea and twice likely to have a heart attack or stroke.
He also explains sleep apnea is a long-term problem and it cannot be solved in just one night, so he recommends dedicating some time to treat it patiently.
