Yes I developed sleep apnea while on prednisone.
Yes I also thought it was because of the redistribution of fat to my face and neck.
I’m off prednisone now. I still use CPAP but I sleep fine without the CPAP machine some nights.

@dadcue Thank you for sharing your experience. I thought I was sleeping fine but the sleep study said otherwise!
Hopefully I will get used to the CPAP. I've only been using it for 7 days. It's very quiet but it's just wearing the mask ( I need a full face or hybrid mask) that is tough.
