Snoring or is it sleep apnea?

Not everyone that snores has sleep apnea, and not everyone who has sleep apnea snores. So how do you tell the difference between normal snoring and snoring that hinting towards a serious case of sleep apnea? The biggest indication is how you feel through out the day. Normal snoring does not always interfere with the quality of your sleep as much as sleep apnea does, so you’re less likely to suffer from extreme fatigue or sleepiness while your awake. If one thinks that they or someone they know may have obstructive sleep apnea, they should discuss their symptoms here at Az-Sleep with Board Certified Sleep Doctor Leonard M. Moss as soon as possible. At AZ-Sleep, Leonard M. Moss, MD uses the latest technology in home sleep testing equipment and diagnostic monitoring. Dr. Moss will complete a thorough examination in order to determine the best treatment options for each patient.
