Frequently Asked Questions
What are the warning signs or symptoms of sleep apnea?
Some of the common symptoms associated with sleep apnea are as follows:
- Loud snoring
- Sleepiness or lack of energy during the day
- Morning headaches
- Forgetfulness and mood swings
- Decreased libido
- Drowsiness while driving
- Restless sleep
- Waking with a choking/gasping sensation
- Waking with a dry/sore throat
The best way to find out if you have sleep apnea is by undergoing a sleep study. A sleep study can be performed under the supervision of a physician in a lab, or in the privacy of your own home. It will record data such as oxygen levels, brain activity, and muscle movement and a physician will determine if, in fact, you have sleep apnea. Then we can start treatment right away.
Is there something you should do if you suspect you or a loved one might have sleep apnea?
Sleep apnea is a severe condition that needs to be addressed as soon as possible. If you’ve already been diagnosed by your primary care physician and are seeking treatment, contact our office to schedule your free consultation today by calling (929) 335-7284.
