Sleep Apnea
How restless are you at night?
Do you snore?
Do you know if you sleep on your back, and how much?
Have you been told you stop breathing at night and then gasp for air?
Do you wake up tired after a full night, need to take naps in the middle of the day?
5-10% of middle age men (half that for women) have sleep apnea.
80-90% of people are unaware and go undiagnosed.
Sleep apnea is estimated to cost up to 5 life-years.
