OMAHA, NE, February 24, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Snoring is more than a minor nuisance--it can be a major source of tension among couples. And it's an indicator of sleep apnea, which is related to many dangerous, even deadly health conditions. But there is treatment available: comfortable, convenient treatment without surgery or a breathing mask. If you or someone you love snores, please come to the Swanson Branch Library at 90th and Dodge on Wednesday March 4th to learn more about your treatment options.
Dr. Roger Roubal, who has been treating sleep apnea and snoring for over 20 years, will give two talks, one at 1:30 and one at 6:00. Dr. Roubal will help you understand the sleep apnea signs to watch out for, such as:
- Snoring
- Morning headaches
- Daytime sleepiness
- Fatigue
- Moodiness
- Lack of motivation
Dr. Roubal will also talk about the links between sleep apnea and other health conditions, such as:
- Heart disease
- Cancer
- Diabetes
- Obesity
- Depression
Dr. Roubal wants people to understand the seriousness of this condition, and that there are many treatment options other than surgery or a CPAP breathing mask. Dr. Roubal will discuss all treatment options, including oral appliances and combination therapy, and let people understand the benefits and drawbacks of each.
The presentation will be followed by a short Q&A session. Light snacks will be provided.
"Sleep apnea treatment is very effective," says Dr. Roubal, "once we can identify people with sleep apnea. The only problem is that the sleep apnea treatments people may know about--surgery and CPAP--have risks or are uncomfortable, so people avoid them. People need to know about all their options."
