      No I've not been checked for sleep apnea will ask about this when I go to Ent but I must say I visited my Doctors again because we have had a new GP start and he was brilliant he really but my mind at ease nd gave me something for my anxiety which really helped and have been going out for walks on a regular basis and that has really helped but the biggest support is speaking to other people with the same symptoms have had no symptoms for a week now hope it stays that way thanks for your reply am hear to listen coz it really helped 5

    Hi Margaret,

    Glad you're getting relief and that you've got a good doctor! It certainly does sound like it's anxiety-based.
