Reduce Sleep Apnea By Improving Sleep Posture ?
Sleep apnea can be improved by examining your sleep posture. If you tend to sleep in a fetal position or burrow your face into a pillow, your posture alone could be contributing to your sleep breathing. Try putting pillows around you and sitting up slightly to sleep. Just stopping your bad sleep habits may help decrease your apnea. If you have asthma, be sure to treat it because it will make apnea worse.

Have a doctor check out the reason for the shortness of breath - as that should be your main concern as an increased heart rate this definitely could be a more serious issue than just apnea or asthma.

Yes, there is a potential connection between sleep apnea and high eosinophil counts. Sleep apnea can lead to systemic inflammation, which may result in increased eosinophil levels.

However, more research is needed to fully understand the relationship between these conditions.
