Who to see for sleep apnea?

My wife says I snore very loudly and stop breathing sometimes while sleeping. She's worried it might be sleep apnea. I need to know which type of doctor should I consult for this problem.

For suspected sleep apnea, it's advisable to consult a sleep medicine specialist. They are specifically trained to diagnose and manage sleep disorders. Sometimes, an ENT specialist might also be involved, especially if structural issues in the airway are contributing. A doctor's advice is paramount here.

Initially, I was so scared when someone mentioned sleep apnea, thought it was very serious. But many people have it and it's manageable. You should consult a sleep specialist or an ENT doctor. They can perform a sleep study and guide you to the right treatment. Don't worry, help is available.

Agar neend mein saans rukti hai, toh achhe specialist doctor ko dikhana chahiye. Bade shehron mein 'sleep specialist' hote hain. Vo check karke bata denge kya dikkat hai aur kaise theek hoga. Aise problems ko chhupana nahi chahiye.

You should definitely see a sleep specialist for sleep apnea. They often work in conjunction with ENT doctors or pulmonologists. They will likely recommend a sleep study to confirm the diagnosis and then discuss options like CPAP machines or other interventions. It's a treatable condition, so get it checked.
