It is often present in people who are overweight, particularly those who snore. If you are very tired in the morning, sleep easily during the day and snore loudly, you may have sleep apnea. Sleep apnea may cause or worsen high blood pressure. Sleep apnea is a common cause of abnormal heart rhythm requiring treatment. You should discuss these problems with your doctor and consider assessment for sleep apnea.
