Are you groggy and tired even though you think you’ve had a good sleep? If that’s the case, you may have sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is a common sleep-related breathing problem. It leaves sufferers unconsciously gasping for air during sleep, making it nearly impossible to achieve quality sleep. The condition is associated with high blood pressure, heart attack, and stroke risk.
