I saw my pulmonologist this week (my sleep doctor). I told him that although I use my Bi-pap every night, I’m still tired all the time. He said there is a new, recently approved prescription drug made specifically for folks like me with sleep apnea.
It’s a mild stimulant that fights off sleepiness during the day. It’s called the Sleep Problem Exacerbation Eliminator Drug, or SPEED for short. I picked up my prescription today.
