I so agree with getting a sleep test. I don't have sleep apnea, and we are investigating further and I have a neuro consult. But it's important to get to the bottom of sleep problems. DON'T LET THEM TELL YOU IT'S JUST ANXIETY or whatever. If better sleep hygiene and limiting caffeine doesn't produce a result (and more exercise) then push for the sleep test. I have heard from numerous ppl that when they got the CPAP machine (for sleep apnea) they got SO much better. THat's not my case, but man, what a simple solution for such a terrible problem.
Thank you, WIshful for bringing this topic up. In fact, we often dismiss our physical symptoms as part of our MI. Don't let that happen. Push for medical answers bc they may be underlying and CAUSING the MI.
My two cents. Anyways.
