Can Sleep Apnea cause constant muscle aches, and weird dreams etc..?
I am a 21 year old male, i have moderate sleep apnea and i have a lot of trouble sleeping with the CPAP machine. My body constantly aches and ever y6 weeks or so i get a temperate and they worse. Randomly throughout the day the muscle aches get worse but tend to get better with time. I am usually very fatigued but i cant fall asleep or nap and such. Would getting my tonsils and amnoids etc.. taken out be a better option for me than trying to a djust to the CPAP? And also, can sleep apnea actually be the cause of all of these aches going through my body?

CPAP takes time to get use too. ARe you using humidity. Have you tried a few types of mask. Do you use the ramp. Have you tried auto pap or bipap. Both are more comfortable than cpap. There are dental devices that are effective for many people.
Many people who recently started cpap have weird dreams because you have not dreamed in a long time. It gets better. Also you sometimes have aches because you sleep in one spot as previously you tossed and turned. You may need a new mattress or a mattress topper. It get better I promise. It takes time.
