Go see your Dr : And mention about this symptom. You may have sleep apnea and may need monitoring of oxygen while asleep and sleep study. Take care! http://www.Mayoclinic.Com/health/sleep-apnea/ds00148.

Sleep Apnea: This diagnosis means that one 'stops breathing' at night. Snoring is not part of the true diagnosis. Snoring is a common problem in those with sleep apnea. You need to get to a sleep clinic urgently.

Sleep study: Talk to your physician. A sleep study to evaluate you for sleep apnea may be in order.
