Sleeping Sickness

I attributed years of fatigue to severe allergies. A diagnosis of sleep apnea was the door to a completely new way of looking at the world.

    Comment: The Epworth Sleepiness is a great tool to determine daytime tiredness. If you suffer from obstructive sleep apnea, check out the options with Oral Appliances--they look like athletic mouth guards but are much less bulky. A quick airway scan can determine your candidacy for treatment. Ask your dentist about it.

    Comment: If you feel sleepy all the time even after an adequate amount of bed rest, ask your health care provider about an Epworth sleepiness scale. This test can give you an indication as to whether or not you have a problem that needs further investigation. Not getting enough rest is a safety problem for all.
