Anyone can be affected by sleep apnea. However, some people are at a higher risk, such as overweight individuals, men, people over 40, having enlarged tonsils or tongue, those with large necks and/or small jawbones, and sinus problems. Many people have one or multiple risk factors. If you or a loved one has any of these sleep apnea indicators, we suggest seeing Dr. Farnad for a consultation and sleep apnea evaluation.

 

The most common symptoms of sleep apnea include:

• Heavy/loud snoring

• Headaches

• Restlessness or inability to sleep through the night

• Waking up throughout the night

• Insomnia

• Fatigue

• Low energy during the day

• Waking up with a dry or sore throat

• Difficulty losing weight
