How does sleep apnea make you feel in the morning?

Wow. That is an insightful story. Was the exhaustion you felt before treatment like normal exhaustion or tiredness or did it feel any different? Did it affect your physical energy, like were you able to walk up stairs without fatigue?

It was almost like being drugged. I was bone-weary. I couldn't think clearly, or stay focused.
I didn't feel achy muscles, as though I had been breaking rocks, though. It was just exhaustion.
The thing is, it had happened so gradually I didn't notice it at the time. I can't even tell you how long it had been going on. A couple of years? Longer? I think it was a problem for maybe five years, gradually worsening until it got critical.
Getting a CPAP changed my life, though. I can't tell you how much better I felt, and how rapidly. Like a miracle.
