Sleep apnea: some symptoms of sleep apnea: restless lseep, waking up tired/groggy, morning headache, dry mouth, sore throat. similar observation made by partner can also be present. Your doctor can order sleep study to make the diagnosis. Avoiding alcohol and losing weight helps a lot of patients. Wish you good health.
