Question about some thing?

I had surgery(tonsils taken out) long ago cause i snored or because i snored a lot ,i think he said that i had that sleeping disolder(snore's and stops breathing)but there wasnt a test done, he only went on what my mom said (as in he made his decision based on what my mom told him what was happening to me during sleep.)why wasn't there a test done? i didn't stop breathing i just snored a lot and i think loudly and was tried during the day and went to bed at 7pm most nights .since the surgery ( tonsils taken out) i only snore's once an a while but i still be's tried during the day or some days or some days I'm tried and other days I'm more tried.

i feel like may be the surgery was unnessaery but then again I don't snore as much any more so i guess the surgery helped but i still sleeps with my mouth opened, its the only way i can sleep.

It sound like you may have sleep apnea. It's a sleeping disorder that can cause you to snore and stop breathing for period of time. It could also cause you to have fatigue, high blood pressure and not being able to focus mentally. You can be easily diagnosed with a sleep study. All they do is attach electrodes to your head, face, and chest and have you sleep there for the night. It's not that bad. It's really worth it to have it done. If you do have sleep apnea a second study will be done. This time they will have a piece of equipment that you will have to sleep in to help you get more oxygen when sleeping. It will be a little mask that will fit over your nose and it has a strap that holds your chin up to keep you mouth closed. This takes some getting use to but it not that bad.

If it goes untreated for a long period of time sleep apnea can cause serious health problems for you like high blood pressure, hearth attack, or stoke. Who knew a good night sleep was so important.

One more thing, just because you don't feel yourself stop breathing doesn't mean it's not happening. I didn't snore that much either but, at my study, the longest period I went with out getting a breath was for 14 seconds and I didn't know until they told me.
