Time to get some help... and some sleep!!
Snoring and Sleep Apnea are common sleep-disordered breathing problems that can affect your sleep, health and quality of life.
Snoring and sleep apnea often occur together.
Your airway may:
> Narrow, limiting airflow as you breathe
> Vibration, commonly heard as snoring
> Collapse, so you stop breathing
Symptoms that may indicate Sleep Apnea are:
> Excessive daytime sleepiness
> Poor concentration
> Poor memory
> Depression
> Sexual Disfunction and Mood Swings
Treatment of Snoring, Sleep Apnea and Sleep Disordered Breathing:
The most effective and widely accepted treatment for sleep apnea is positive airway pressure therapy.
It does not involve drugs or surgery.
A bedside device gently delivers pressurised air via a mask to keep your upper airway open. This is called CPAP(Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) Treatment.
