Severe chest pain from sleep apnea? - Sleep Disorders Message Board

I know it is possible.
But is there anyone here who has actually suffered from this?
I mean severe chest pain during the day, evenings and nights. Activity causes it. But it also happens at rest.
I am currently being checked for cardiac conditions as well.
I'm more interested in the sleep apnea side of this now.
Thanks,
Dan

In case anybody looks at this, the answer to my questions was "yes".
I have Pulmonary Hypertension. The doctors believe it was partly caused, or caused from sleep apnea.
I have severe sleep apnea.

Is anyone else here suffering from this?

Danny,

Thanks so much for sharing this info...I've come across references in my reading to pulmonary hypertension, but know of no one on these boards with this experience. I would hope you would post what you know and what your experience has been so others may benefit from this info.
