Sleep Apnea Quiz

Feel tired all the time? Take this sleep assessment quiz

Here’s an easy self-assessment tool called “STOP BANG” to help you understand if you’re at risk for obstructive sleep apnea. The higher the score on the 8-point scale, the more severe your risk.

Self-assessment questions - how do you sleep?

S Do you snore loudly?
T Do you often feel tired, fatigued or sleepy during the daytime?
O Has anyone observed you stop breathing during your sleep?
P Do you have or are you being treated for high blood pressure?
B Is your BMI greater than 35?
A Are you over age 50?
N Is your neck circumference greater than 16 inches?
G Are you a male?

Score: 0-2 low risk, 3-4 intermediate, 5-8 high risk

If you scored higher than 5, talk to your primary care provider about having a sleep assessment or contact Goshen Physicians Sleep & Allergy Medicine.

Sleep apnea raises your risk of serious health problems

Even though sleep disorders are common for people of all ages, you may not know you have a sleep problem, especially with sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea can lead to unexplained daytime sleepiness, headaches and difficulty concentrating. Your sleep problems may stem from serious health concerns, such as anxiety, depression, Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes or chronic pain. Medications can also cause sleep disturbances.

Risk assessments don’t diagnose sleep disorders, such as sleep apnea. However, they can evaluate your risk or likelihood of having a sleep disorder. It’s the first step in diagnosing the underlying problem.

Food allergies: Understanding when you may need testing

There are food intolerance and food allergy; they’re not the same. A food allergy can cause digestive problems, hives, swollen airways – or even anaphylaxis, a life-threatening reaction. Allergic reactions begin in the immune system. Food intolerance can cause bothersome, but less serious reactions and isn’t life-threatening.

Healthy Lifestyle

Does what you eat affect how you sleep?

Some studies have shown that eating the recommended amounts of fruits, vegetables, legumes and whole grains can lead to better sleep and less insomnia. Still, because of the complexity of factors that affect sleep – including age, exercise, stress, sleep habits – it may be easier to list the foods that contribute to poor sleep than to identify food items to improve sleep.
