I'm really worried about my sister. She's been dealing with sleep apnea for like 10 years now, and it causes her to wake up suddenly while sleeping, though it only happens once every month or every couple of months. What kind of treatments are available for this, and how can we help her manage or sort this out?

I'm really worried about my husband's chest pain. The doctor said it's a lung allergy and put him on a one-month course. But he still feels a tightness in his chest every day, and he's really weak. He's had heart checkups like ECG and BP, and everything seems fine. I'm sharing his reports. Could you help me understand what's going on with him?
