If you wake up tired, you either are not sleeping good or you are not breathing properly during your sleep. people with sleep apnea usually have no problem going to sleep. They just struggle to sleep soundly as they gasp for air during their sleep. They also are tired during the day.

A sleep test can be helpful. A take home sleep test will show how you sleep in your own bed. My father-in-law did one last week at the sleep lab and did not sleep well in a strange bed. A portable recording pulse-ox system will track your O2 as you sleep. A couple hundred dollars will buy a high tech version with USB and bluetooth connectivity.
