I was hooked up to an oxymeter when I was younger, but the specialist that I went to only gave a vague description to what I needed to do for sleep apnea at the time. Of course, I was in elementary school when that happened, so basically zero stress in my life.
Any additional info in the 5-HTP is appreciated.

If there's a chance you have sleep apnea, you DO NOT want to be taking medication that will keep you asleep. The reason you're sleepy with apnea is because you stop breathing in the night, and your body kicks itself to wake you up and start breathing again. Apply drugs that keep you asleep, and you may stay that way permanently.
