Yes, but I thought I read that after a certain amount of time your brain will automatically wake you up so that you resume breathing, hence the wakefulness throughout the night? Is sleep apnea a neurological disorder?

The way my dr described it to me, was when you stop breathing you go into a fight or flight mode, your heart starts racing and thats a lot of stress on your heart. That raises blood pressure and could cause a stroke or heart attack.
