Thank you very much for referring Anne along for investigation of possible obstructive sleep apnoea. I agree she has a high likelihood of the condition given her snoring and witnessed apnoeas by her husband in more recent years. She awakes unrefreshed even on nights that she sleeps well and has symptoms of sleepiness in passive situations, but not whilst driving. She also has issues with sleep maintenance and occasionally sleep onset. She does practice good sleep hygiene but of note she was unaware that black tea has caffeine in it and she is drinking this into the afternoon/early evening.
I also understand that she has recently been started on Avapro for hypertension and there was a question of whether or not the obstructive sleep
