Do you have trouble sleeping?
Do you snore?
Do you awake feeling tired?
Have you awakened gasping?
Do you have consistent restless nights?
Do you awake with frequent headaches?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, it is time to see your doctor and talk about the possibility of sleep apnea or other sleep related problems. Untreated Sleep Apnea can lead to Heart Attacks, Stroke, High Blood Pressure, short term memory loss and more.
Decatur County Memorial Hospital offers a state of the art Sleep Center on the third floor of our facility to assist in diagnosing potential sleep disorders. Our technicians can assist, and in conjunction with your physician can help, to test and diagnose various sleep disorders.
