Sleep Apnea Treatment

Sleep Apnea is of two types, viz., OSA (Obstructive sleep apnea) and CSA (Central sleep apnea); the former occurs due to airway blockage caused by tissue collapse in the throat and the latter is a result of brain failure to transmit breathing signals to the muscles. Those with enlarged tonsils, especially children are made to undergo Tonsillectomy or adenoidectomy or both to cure apnea.Headaches either in the morning or at night are reported among most patients.

Sleeping Senceless

I am a Bank Employee, working from 3 years. I am having very tight sleep at night, But that is creating problem for my family. I am not in sense for waking up, if they need a help from me at night. I am feeling like if serious problem comes to my family I may not respond to that while sleeping. If they are disturbing me also I am not waking up but talking some rubbish and sleeping again. But I am not able to recall all those things what I have done at night. Deep sleep is very happy, But is this a sleeping disorder too..?? Any solution for this.?
