Sleep Apnea means you stop breathing x amount of times a night. Each time you top breathing your heart also stops. Untreated sleep apnea (not using a CPAP) puts you at a higher risk for a heart attack or stroke.

Untreated Sleep Apnea might be the cause of your symptoms but the only way to know is to use a CPAP continuously. A dry mouth at night would indicate you sleep with your mouth open.
