The Symptoms of Sleep Apnea (Part 2)
Breathing Cessation. You may actually observe or notice yourself waking up for no reason in the middle of the night. Or, someone else may notice that you are doing this. Again, your spouse is a great help in spotting this condition.
Dry mouth. Often, those that suffer from this condition will wake up with the feel of a dry mouth or even a sore throat.
Insomnia. Many of those that suffer from sleep apnea have insomnia or the condition in which they just can not fall asleep and stay asleep. There may be nothing else causing this to happen.
If you wake up with a shortness of breath, it is likely that you will be facing central sleep apnea. If you are more commonly snoring loudly, this is characterized by obstructive sleep apnea. Nevertheless, if you face any of these problems, it is necessary to talk to your doctor about your condition as soon as possible.
