Cpap andInsurance

Hello everyone.

I saw my consultant yesterday he is discharging me. He also said thT my sleep study has shown mild sleep apnoea. He said that I will be trying a cpap machine. He also said I need to inform dvla and my insurer. Does anyone know what the insurer will charge because of this? Will I have any restrictions placed on me.? Also, what percentage my insurance will go by?

I have really severe sleep apnoea and use a cpap machine. I was advised to wait until I had my first follow up before informing the dvla. I did this and informed my insurance company and there were no restrictions put on my license and my premium did not go up.
