Do you or your partner snore? You may have sleep apnoea

Snoring may be an indicator of a serious underlying condition known as Obstructive Sleep Apnoea (OSA). This occurs when there is a partial or full blockage of your airway. Your brain will then register a lack of oxygen and respond with muscle spasms. You will then often wake with a start, resume breathing and then return to sleep. This can occur several times throughout the night, causing a disruptive sleep.
