Treating Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Claude Said:

Identify any areas that are vague or ambiguous.?

We Answered:

Try taking out the little bits of slang, like "the kicker" and "no-brainer". They stand out too much in a piece that is so factual. Also, you seem to have two arguments here: that obesity should not be treated as a disease in order to avoid financially punishing thinner people, and that children should be taught to make better nutritional choices rather than having those choices made for them. Whatever my opinion on either of those issues, you should either make the tie between them clearer or focus on one or the other.

Arlene Said:

should people drive who are being treated for obstructive sleep apnea?

We Answered:

No they should not be driving if their treatments are not working. However if there is some improvement there is no reason not to drive. The dangerous ones are those who have severe sleep apnea, are not diagnosed or in treatment, and do no know enough to pull over and nap when they feel drowsy.

I am on provigil and it does seem to help my alertness during my mind numbing job. So far though I don't know if No Doz pills would be just as good. Certainly a lot cheaper.
