I'm the greater insomniac in my household, so I was the one to note my wife's snoring and breathing cessations. She felt fine in the morning. A sleep study showed her PO2 levels dipping as low as 76. She's a CPAP user now.

I think of sleep apnea as a bit like chronic high blood pressure: few or no perceptible symptoms until you become a dialysis or stroke patient.
