 I'm Dr. Madan Kandula, and these signs, often joined with snoring, are sleep apnea symptoms. And if this sounds like you, you may have been in a struggle last night between you and this serious disorder. Many people aren't willing to fight back, but the fact is you can't go through these nightly struggles without ramifications that each night chip away at your life's expiration date. I get it. You don't want to wear a CPAP mask.
