well, sleep apnea is related to Atrial fibrillation and I think that AFib and B12 are connected. So, possibly.

Well I am fighting for continued B12 injections and read yesterday about possible ears blocked symptoms also being a symptom. After suffering those very same symptoms for over 2 years I have a diagnosis of TMJ. Have to wait over 12 months for Maxo-facial appointment. So this is a real possibility.

Within 30 seconds of my ENT appointment following a head scan and palpating my jaw. This following a 2 year wait when GP refused to refer me telling me all symptoms were in my head., and finally going private.

Yes, I’ve recently been diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea. I also questioned if there was a connection with PA. Does this mean that PA causes more damage elsewhere in the body?? Why do we have to suffer with more complications throughout our bodies??

I now have an oral appliance to help with my sleep apnea. So, what else can PA throw at me?? Let’s wait and see ☹️

Doctor wanted me tested for sleep apnea as I was waking up at night but I forgot I have asthma and take a puff at nogjt and it solved the problem.
