WHAT'S YOUR SNORE SCORE?
Your answers to this quiz will help you decide whether
you may suffer from sleep apnea:
-
Are you a loud, habitual snorer?
Yes No -
Do you feel tired and groggy on awakening?
Yes No -
Are you often sleepy during waking hours and/or can you fall asleep
quickly?
Yes No -
Are you overweight and/or do you have a large neck?
Yes No -
Have you been observed to choke, gasp, or hold your breath during
sleep?
Yes No
If you or someone close to you answers "yes" to any of
the above questions, you should discuss your symptoms with your
physician or a sleep specialist. Or ask the American Sleep Apnea
Association for more information on the diagnosis and treatment of sleep
apnea. Different treatment options exist; which one is right depends
upon the severity of your apnea and other aspects of the disorder. Talk
to your doctor about your choices. Untreated, sleep apnea can be
extremely serious and cannot be ignored.
