Is snoring a sign of sleep apnea?

Snoring can be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea, especially when it is loud, happens most nights and comes with pauses in breathing, gasping, daytime sleepiness or high blood pressure. Not everyone who snores has sleep apnea, but it is worth ruling out, and only a sleep study can confirm it.

Can sleep apnea be treated without a CPAP machine?

CPAP is very effective, but it is not the only option. Depending on the cause and severity, treatment may include weight loss, sleeping on your side, treating nasal blockage, an oral appliance made by a dentist, or surgery for specific airway problems.

Is snoring affecting your relationship?

Loud snoring is a common reason couples sleep in separate rooms, and both partners often wake tired and irritable. Snoring can also be a sign of obstructive sleep apnea, which is worth checking for the snorer's own health.

Why do I wake up tired every morning?

Waking up tired can come from late or irregular bedtimes, alcohol, late caffeine, a dry or blocked nose, snoring or sleep apnea. A dry mouth or headache on waking is a useful clue that you may be breathing through your mouth at night, which can make sleep lighter and less refreshing.
