GLP-1s and Sleep: What to Expect

The sleep position versus reflux conflict with AFib is a real medical tension. Elevating the head of the bed slightly can address the reflux piece without requiring full side-sleeping - worth raising with both the cardiologist and whoever manages the GLP-1 protocol.
 
The sleep improvement on GLP-1s for people with OSA is one of the more clinically documented secondary effects - the airway pressure change from even modest weight reduction around the neck and chest compounds the direct receptor effect on sleep architecture.
