He snores pretty loudly. He doesn't smoke, have a BMI over 35 or drink alcohol. He used to have high BP but nowadays with meds he is getting his BP down to a normal range like around 126/82 or 116/71. He also goes running and waking in the mornings and evenings.

I asked a doctor (he is a pediatrician but he is very knowledgeable) and she said he has a low chance of contracting sleep apnea but he should control his snoring to lower his chances even more. My question is, what do you think?? Do you think he has a high, moderate or low chance of contracting sleep apnea??

Update 3: Not BP, BMI. Sorry for the confusion lol
