What is Sleep Apnea?
Sleep apnea is a disorder in which breathing repeatedly stops and starts during sleep. There are two common types of sleep apnea: central and obstructive. Central sleep apnea occurs when the brain fails to send signals to the muscles that control breathing. Obstructive sleep apnea occurs when the airway becomes blocked, preventing air from flowing into or out of the lungs.
Symptoms of Sleep Apnea
There are a number of symptoms that can be associated with sleep apnea. These include loud snoring, gasping or choking during sleep, waking up feeling short of breath, and waking up with a headache or dry mouth. Some people with sleep apnea may also experience daytime fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating. If you think you may have sleep apnea, it is important to visit a sleep lab for a proper diagnosis. The most common symptoms include the following:
- Insomnia
- Snoring
- Headaches
Is Treatment Right For You?
If you believe that you may be suffering from sleep apnea, it is essential that you seek a definitive diagnosis and treatment right away. One common method of diagnosing sleep problems is through a sleep study, which can be done in a sleep lab. Sleep studies measure factors like brain activity, heart rate, and breathing during sleep. They can help doctors diagnose sleep apnea and get you on the path to proper recovery!
