ST. LOUIS (AP) - Carla Carr knew she felt tired a lot, but never suspected sleep apnea. The Fort Gibson, Okla., woman said she never had a diagnosis, although she''d often be awakened by her husband when he''d catch her not breathing during sleep.
Carr, 43, was identified as being at high risk for obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) just before undergoing nine-hour surgery at Barnes-Jewish Hospital in February.
