I have never had a problem getting & staying asleep. My head hits the pillow and I am off to sleep. I now sometimes awaken my wife with my snoring even with using a sleep CPAP machine and I sleep through it. The only time I awaken is when my wife pushes me off my back to my side and then my snoring ends and back to sleep because she awoke me because I awoke her. I do not hear my own snoring or feel my stop breathing.

No, it has not kept me up at night. Only when I had surgery.

Ever since I had surgery, I usually wake up every hour. I'll sleep seven hours but wake up seven times.

I’m usually up for 3 hours or so. Then go back to sleep then up again. I think it’s the meds. Then I will have a seizure. Sleep well for a few nights then the cycle starts again.
