I have a VERY VERY hard time waking my husband up in the morning,. He doesn’t hear the alarm, kids, dog, phone…ANYTHING. People keep telling him to go get tested for sleep apnea, now under certain circumstances I would understand why you may go get tested for that, but my husband has been like this ALL his life, ever sense he was little. I have heard some pretty funny stories about when he was little and wouldn’t wake up. So I don’t understand why he would have sleep apnea now when he has been like this all his life.

He may have had apnea all of his life. My 6 yr old son just got his tonsils out and one of the reasons was because he has apnea. Does your husband snore, gasp for air or stop breathing? Being very hard to wake up is one of the symptoms since people with apnea are constantly waking up all night, but don’t remember it. He may be hard to wake up because he is soooo tired. Apnea is serious. It reduces your life span. It puts pressure on your heart and other organs. Your body is deprived of oxygen when you are not breathing properly. If in doubt, have him get checked.
