Sleep apnea is holding your breath in your sleep. Sufferers do this repeatedly during the night. Treatment is narmally wearing a CPAP (continious presurized air pump) while you sleep. It forces air up your nose constantly.
Although the article said 80% of clusterheads have apnea, it didn't say that CH was caused by the apnea. If it were, how would you explain daytime headaches?
