Many individuals, especially women, face dismissal of their sleep
issues by healthcare professionals, emphasizing the need for
second opinions and proper diagnosis.


In this episode, Sheryl Stillman shares her journey with severe
obstructive sleep apnea. Sheryl discusses her struggles with
sleep issues, initially dismissed as menopause-related by her
primary care physician. Despite being prescribed a CPAP machine,
her first experience was negative due to a lack of support and
understanding. However, after facing health issues exacerbated by
stress, Sheryl sought a new doctor who provided better guidance.
She emphasizes the importance of personalized CPAP therapy,
proper mask fitting, and adjusting machine settings.
