What are some symptoms of sleep apnea?

Answer 1

You need to have someone to observe you sleeping,else you won't know what to report to the MD. You will notice feeling more tired do to the lack of uninterrupted sleep,sore dry throat,due to mouth breathing and snoring,caused by the tissues in the back of your throat collapsing and obstructing your airway.There are 2 types of sleep apnea syndromes.",Obstructive" caused by a blockage in the throat or upper airway."Central sleep apnea" is caused by a dysfunction in part of the brain that controls breathing,allows low levels of oxygen or high levels of carbon dioxide to build up in the blood,allowing the reduced sensitivity to cause the disruption of normal breathing patterns.The only way to find out for sure is to your MD to perform a "sleep study" in a sleep lab with a qualified specialist . Take care. SW RNP.

Answer 2

1. waking up tired in the mornings
2. falling asleep during the daytime
3. snoring at night (could be obstructive sleep apnea)
4. loss of energy during the day

Basically, even if you think you may be sleeping, when you have sleep apnea the CO2 in your lungs rise due to the apnea episodes, this triggers you to breathe every time and you will constantly be waking up but may not know it. The only way to be sure someone has sleep apnea is to be diagnosed by going to a sleep center for a night. They can monitor you for this. Good luck
