Have you been told that you snore or stop breathing in your sleep? These are signs of obstructive breathing and can be extremely dangerous to your health. Other signs of possible sleep disorders include excessive daytime sleepiness, morning headaches, and restless sleep. It is important to speak to a physician about some of these symptoms. Untreated sleep disorders like Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) can lead to increased incidence of hypertension, stroke, and cardiac arrhythmias. Recent research has also linked OSA to diabetes, obesity, and ADHD in children.
