I'm worried about having sleep apnea and I'm not sure what kind of doctor I should reach out to. Are there specific tests I need to take to confirm if I have it? Also, what are the treatment options available if I do have sleep apnea?

View allI've just got my health check-up done, and while most things are in the normal range, my eosinophils count is a bit high at 11.6. I've started taking banocide tablets for the past couple of days. Lately, I've begun feeling a little uneasy when I breathe. I did an ECG and chest X-ray, and those came back normal. Do you think the banocide will help with the breathing issue, or should I be looking into other medication?
Yes, continue same treatment.
