Be Honest — Are You Getting a Good Night’s Sleep?
SIGNS OF OBSTRUCTIVE SLEEP APNEA Part of what makes sleep apnea such a threat to your health is that it deprives your body of oxygen during the night, potentially leading to a host of other health problems. Those with sleep apnea may stop breathing up to a hundred times a night for anywhere from a few seconds to more than a minute. With this happening through the night, you can imagine why your body isn’t getting much rest and why you’re left feeling less than stellar when you wake up.
Signs of sleep apnea can include, and are not limited to:
• • • • •
Loud, frequent snoring
Breathing pauses at night (a partner may notice this)
Excessive daytime sleepiness
Memory problems Morning headaches

Do you wake up tired every morning despite having gone to bed at a reasonable hour or getting eight hours of sleep? Maybe it’s been such a consistent part of your life for so long that you’ve stopped hoping for something different, but the reality is that poor sleep, and the constant tiredness that accompanies it, is not a life sentence. Once you discover the cause of your sleeplessness, you can get a better night’s sleep. For many Americans, that cause is sleep apnea.
