Sleep Apnea
Get Your ZZZ’s!
Sleep Apnea is a growing problem in the United States: more than 18 million adults have been diagnosed with the disease, and it also affects an estimated 2-3% of children!
Whether it’s a cat nap, 40 winks, or a full eight hours, everyone needs their sleep. When you start waking up tired and your spouse complains about your snoring, you might not be getting all the sleep you need! Getting a proper diagnosis is the first step to overcoming sleep apnea.
How to Find Out If It’s Sleep Apnea
- Set an appointment with your General Practitioner to refer you to a sleep doctor.
- Keep your sleep doctor appointment and schedule a sleep study.
- After the sleep study, go over the findings to determine if you’re struggling with apnea and to what degree.
Be sure to ask your El Paso sleep doctor if a home sleep study is available. If so, you can use the kit in the comfort of your own home, then bring the machine back for your doctor to read the data!
