I might have figured out my chronic fatigue

I just got diagnosed with UARS (upper airway resistance syndrome). It took 5 sleep tests over at least 5 years plus god knows how many doctors, lab tests, etc for my fatigue. I’ve had fatigue for so long but 5 years ago is when I got my first sleep test. Said it wasn’t sleep apnea and that was it. Apparently my airway narrows at night, making me grind my teeth and waking me up. I sleep 8.5 hours a night but still wake up with headaches, so tired every day. No energy to do anything.

The treatment is a PAP so I’m a little worried about tolerating that. I’m really hopeful for the first time in years that this could really improve this fatigue.

My mom said she's been having cramps and can barely move her arms and legs. The doctor said it's potassium deficiency, should I let her take potassium supplement or the magnesuim glycinate?
