Do you feel that you never get a good night sleep no matter how early you go to sleep or how late you get up? You notice that your sleep is never restful, but you don't know why? You know that your bed is very comfortable and your body is never really sore.
You just may be suffering from a disorder called sleep apnea.
What is sleep apnea and what are the symptoms? The symptoms are not hard to diagnose, but it may take a doctor to actually determine it.
Sleep apnea is a disorder that restricts or in some cases block your ability to breath while you sleep.
You may not even know you suffer from this since you are sleeping.
As a matter of fact, in most cases it's the person's bed partner that will notice it first since they are awaken by the abrupt snoring and/or loud choking sound that the sufferer will make when his or her airway is constricted.
Many of the sleep apnea treatments that are out there are quite useful and many times successful in helping the patient.
Of course there are the extreme cases where surgery is need to accomplish this.
Some of the treatments are quite simple, in fact a behavioral change in the person will be enough to solve the problem.
In others, a mask mask you some type of denture plate is all that is needed while the person sleeps.
To really know if you do suffer from sleep apnea, see you doctor and he could set up some basic test that can be done in a facility or even done in your own home.
