Not just “Obstructive Apnea.”

There is also a brain stem apnea where a person just stops breathing. It’s called “Central Apnea.”

When you have both it is “Complex Apnea.”

I was diagnosed with it 3 years ago and have been using a BIPAP machine ever since - the quality of my sleep has improved tremendously.
