Sleep apnea...: Your symptoms suggest that you may have sleep apnea. The only way to know for sure is to get a sleep study done. During a sleep study, you are monitored carefully while you sleep. If you have sleep apnea, either obstructive or central, it will be diagnosed during this single night test. There are many different treatments so see your doc and get the test done so you can get treated if needed!
