Sleep apnea: You said you have sleep apnea. Are you being treated? Cpap? Are you wearing it every night? Has it been calibrated and checked with another overnight sleep study? If you aren't wearing, why not. In any event, please discuss your current situation with your doctor immediately.

Curvature?: Do you have a curvature of your spine? Have you been gaining weight recently? Certainly trying to lose weight will help but I would also see a chiropractor for treatment. Ask his/her opinion for new mattress and types of pillows available.
