I've been ignoring sleep apnoea for about a decade.

In my experience if you go to the doctor they also ignore it

If it's been going on for a deacde i'd get that checked. I think it's a quick fix? They'll maybe watch you sleep for one night and then give you some stuff to help with it

Yeah, you're probably right. The last time I mentioned it they didn't seem too convinced or concerned so I've just been shrugging it off. It is on my to do list I assure you.
