One of the main concerns with Sleep Apnea is that a person may not even be aware that their snoring may point towards a more serious condition. Many times reports of potential Sleep Apnea generally come from outside observers like a sleep partner. Other good indicators of possible Sleep Apnea include: feeling tired throughout the day, needing to nap during the day, or feeling like you haven't slept at all after a full night's rest.

Sleep apnea is also not age specific. It can affect anyone from childhood up to old age. Both men and women can develop sleep apnea, but it is more common to men; particularly middle-aged, overweight men. A recent study shows that 34% of men are snore habitually, while 50% report occasional snoring.

Some other symptoms of sleep apnea can include: instances of irritability, short temper, trouble with concentration or memory, lethargy, anxiety, depression, frequent nightmares and sexual dysfunction. There are also indications that high blood pressure, with the added risk of heart attack and stroke may be attributed to snoring and sleep apnea.
