Erectile Dysfunction and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)

Dr. Michael J. Breus is a clinical psychologist and board certified sleep specialist. In a June 16, 2011 article posted on Huffingtonpost.com, he describes research reported earlier by Health.MSN.com. This references a press release I traced back to the American Urological Association. Read it if you have a true desire for meaningless drivel.

Dr. Breus, echoing reporter Robert Preidt of HealthDay that provided the report to Health.MSN.com who read the PR of the American Urological Association all managed to come to the same conclusion: those with erectile dysfunction are more likely to also have sleep apnea.

Fucking DUH!

I’m sorry, but this is just insane. Of course, men with ED are also going to have an increased incidence of Apnea, because they are both caused by the same thing. Being overweight, under exercised, and just out of freaking shape will cause ED and it will also create the airway obstruction associated with this dangerous sleep disorder.

I wrote an entire book about this... the link is provided at the bottom of this post. The difference is, I provide suggestions on how to eliminate these life altering and life threatening conditions and they do not.

I understand that the original research finding is just that, and must be reported without editorial comment. It is not meant to offer any further advice. However, the follow up reporters – two levels deep – regurgitate the data -- it is data and not information -- and they add nothing. There is no value whatsoever. Neither says anything about what to do to prevent either erectile dysfunction or sleep apnea. Knowing that these two disorders are “linked,” does nothing to help anyone.

Dr. Breus even goes so far as to remind readers that they “make sure to use your CPAP machine, oral appliance or other prescribed treatment on a regular basis.” But he never tells them to get off their asses and take a walk. Get away from the TV, stop eating, and go outside!

To think that people who have earned doctorates in medicine, medical research, and psychology cannot find it in themselves to give people a little direction away from expensive machines, “appliances,” and other medical and medicinal treatments is upsetting and very scary. It’s all about the buck. If anyone speaks up and tells everyone suffering from everything that they can resolve their issues themselves, then the Medical and Pharmaceutical juggernauts will come down on them and stop funding their web sites.

Heal yourself. It’s the kind of healing that really works. Read how.
