Quiz to see if you are sleep deprived

Posted in Family by Elliott Back on November 8th, 2004.

Thank you for taking the sleep-deprivation mini-checkup! Your answers to the Epworth Sleepiness Test indicate you may have mild sleep deprivation.

One common cause of daily grogginess is obstructive sleep apnea, a condition in which breathing stops for several seconds during sleep. The cut-off in air and oxygen stress the heart, brain and other organs and can continually jolt people awake - a risky, exhausting syndrome.

Sleep apnea is more common in heavy drinkers and people who are overweight.
