[QUOTE="recovering doormat, post: 245683, member: 5941"] My 16 yr old son went for a sleep study one year ago, after suffering for years from fatigue in the morning no matter how much sleep he had. Even when he went off Seroquel and Risperadal, he still was hard to rouse in the morning. turns out he did not have apnea, which we suspected, but his enlarged tonsils and adenoids caused him to rebreathe his CO2, which accounted for the drowsiness the next day. He had the tonsils and adenoids removed one year ago, and his sleep improved immediately. He's doing great a year later. If he hadn't had the sleep study done, we never would have known! His dad snored so badly when we were married that I forced him to go for a sleep study, and his apnea was so bad he stopped breathing over 300 times during the 8 hour study. It was a miracle he hadn't had a heart attack or fallen asleep behind the wheel. He's been using a CPAP machine for the past 13 years. [/QUOTE]
