Sleep apnea

My husband says I stop breathing at night. I guess I have sleep apnea.
Should I be immediately concerned.
I don't feel tired in the daytime. I have no syptoms (symptoms).
Thanks

I got sleep apnea when i was a child. my kids told me i did it and i would wake up feeling sssssoooo tired, then I asked my mom she said yes. about 20 years ago I went through a sleep study to see how sever it was i was told it wasn't to bad. I dropped to 74 and 80. I would only stop for a few seconds through out the night but i would then start to breath, My feiance told me that i have very shallow breaths and sometime pant like a dog. I can always tell to when i wake up and my chest hurt a little, and im exstremly tired. sometime you wont notice the symtoms (symptoms) because you will chalk it up to not getting enough sleep. do a sleep study and find out. some are more sever than others yours maybe really mild like mine, I will tell you this watch your weight with it because does play a huge part into it to. The weight you gain the more sever it cant get. Stay blessed and keep me posted.

sincerely msfee
