Hello There,
The symptoms you mentioned are the symptoms related to sleep apnea. You may also have dry mouth in the morning, headache while rising, frequently going to the washroom. There are some rsik factors like age more than 50, mle gender and obesity (BMI more than 30). Sleep apnea is a really importan issue because it can cause Hypertension, Arrythmia, sleepiness during the day (as you mention) and many other problem like change in mood which fortunately improve after addressing sleep apnea. Its management can enhance life spna up to one decade.
