These pauses in your breathing are called “apneas” and they prevent air from getting to your lungs, which reduces the oxygen to your body.
This lack of oxygen causes many of the symptoms of sleep apnea, such as morning headaches and high blood pressure. However, these apneas also disrupt your sleep, which is why sleep apnea sufferers are so tired during the day. Often, the bed partner notices these symptoms first. Most sufferers don't know they have a problem and because everybody reacts differently to sleep apnea, it is often an overlooked condition.
Are you or your loved one living with restless, sleepless nights? CareicaHealth's experts can help you wake up your life.
