How To Treat Sleep Apnea?
I have sleep apnea and use a mouth guard after not liking or feeling with the CPAP. I usually still feel sleepy and used to be able to fall asleep quite quickly. In the last 2 weeks, I have had a hard time falling asleep and staying asleep. I do have some things like new job, daughter going off to college going on, but how can I get some sleep now that I need it. Tylenol PM doesn t cut it; melatonin doesn t cut it. I need something that won t hurt my liver...Thx
