Symptom #7: Excessive snoring, choking or gasping noises

Snoring is something that many people experience, but if it becomes excessive, it may be indicative of a problem like sleep apnea. Some research suggests that about half of the people who snore on a regular basis actually have sleep apnea1https://www.sleepapnea.org/learn/sleep-apnea/do-i-have-sleep-apnea/is-it-snoring-or-sleep-apnea/.

Other symptoms of sleep apnea include abnormal noises during sleep. These can include choking or gasping noises which occur when the body becomes deprived enough of oxygen that the person responds by sharply inhaling oxygen quickly. This may or may not be accompanied by waking up for brief periods.
