I think it is because our metabolism and thought processes slow down, so we don't need as much to recover.
However, when the average age of a truck driver is well over 50, it means that those sleep studies might be more against us older folk than the younger ones. -
I'm a 2 striker when it comes to sleep apnea: old #####, fat #####. Although this past year I did drop 30 pounds which I don't know how that happened. I thought it was cancer but the VA gave me a butt load of blood tests and all were negative but high cholesterol. 2 more pills for the road
The VA gives 2 pills for every malady you have -

Apparently there's a reading comprehension problem for some so at the risk of repeating myself I will.
SWIFT USES A BMI OF 35 OR MORE ONLY TO DETERMINE THE RISK OF OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA, NOT NECK SIZE.
And here's the chart of height and weight Swift's authorized medical examiners use to determine BMI:
Height Weight:
5'6" 216
5'7" 223
5'8" 230
5'9" 236
5'10" 243
5'11" 250
6'0" 258
6'1" 265
6'2" 272
6'3" 279
6'4" 287 -
Get R done Frank!

Will they consider a sleep study showing no apnea that was done 4 years ago? -
