I have trouble waking up in the morning. i'm groggy and irritable. i think i might have sleep apnea. how do i test myself for this?

Groggy & irritable : Wheather you have sleep apnea or not it is good to see your doctor for complete physical exam & blood work , if your doctor suspect sleep apnea he will send you to a sleep study lab where you spend the night & you get monitered & recorded through the night while you are asleep. Good luck
