Sleep Apnea – A Sleeping Epidemic

I have a 4 year old son diagnosed with this last week and I’m told it can be life threatening..We’ve had the sleep study done and confirmed it. My Pediatric doc. thinks it Neurological, but what’s that mean? Any answers would be greatly appreciated, I don’t sleep much, too scared.

Central Sleep Apnea Disorder is a neuorological disorder because the brain fails to signal the muscles to breath. You can read ALL about it on this website:
