Strongly recommend you talk to your AME first about the way forward of you are diagnosed with sleep apnea. Lots of guys have convinced the FAA that they have it and can manage it, but it’s a process that you need to be smart on before it cuts off your income. Unless, you have really good loss of medical coverage. Than enjoy!
