Comment on What is the real reason we sleep?parent

Probably through an overnight clinical sleep study.

Another option is to perform a sleep study at home. You borrow a wearable device that records your sleep quality, breath, ECG, etc. You wear it over night, then turn it in for analysis.

Common symptoms of sleep apnea are if you're regularly tired without apparent reason or experience a reduced ability to concentrate during daytime, or if your surrounding complains that you snore loudly.

Careful though, as HST can under-report events, resulting in a lower AHI score than if you got the clinical PSG.
