Subject: central sleep apnea?
Hi.........Im wondering if I could have central sleep apnea. Last year I went to the ER with beathlessness. The Dr. oncall said I had cold. But for the past year Iv contunied to have sysptoms. I get around 12 hours of sleep a night but am still veary tired. My fatige gets worse in late afternoon & evning. I wake up in the middle of the night gasping for breath......like I have been holding my breath for a long time. I have heart paplapations (mostly when I lay down at night) & I have to get my breath after even the smallest of activies. I would suppect obstuctive sleep apnea......but I dont snore, Im veary young, & I am my ideal wight. Could it be central sleep apnea? | |
