Are morning pains in legs due to sleep apnea?
Before using the CPAP I woke up in the morning with pain in my legs.
Now while using CPAP I rarely have the leg pains.
I am just curious if anyone knows if this pain is due to the apnea?
I appreciat any information you have on this topic.

I am unsure, but apneas cause a drop in the oxygen levels typically. So I would think there could be a connection.

There are a few different things that might cause leg pains. Periodic limb movement could be the cause. This is a sleep disorder totally unrelated to sleep apnea. You could alos have an arousal disorder because of your apnea. RERAS are a type of this. Your body can actually develop a twitch or bodily movement that acts as a defense to keep you breathing.
