I had the same problem with my husband. I thought it was just him or something I had to learn to live with, someone told me he might need a sleep study. I never heard of that before, my husband had a stroke and later had a sleep study which showed he had severe apnea. I wish we had done the study before, as the doctor says can be a factor possibly causing the stroke. I'm sure not saying this is your husband's situation but it might be wise to have it done. It can be done as outpatient at a local hospital or now as awareness is more prevalent can be done at a sleep clinic . I only wish I had know about this BEFORE he had his stroke. This is not given as medical advice, only my story about my experience. Hope all goes well, my friend. Upvoted and following

Oh wow...thank you for this. I might just follow your advice if I can get him to go to the doctor. I appreciate this. Thanks for the follow I will follow back. Have a great weekend.
You are welcome. It may not be his situation at all, I hope it isn't but after 5 years of caregiving for my husband I often wished I had pushed him a little more. Do yourself a favor insist he go plus other test. You will be thankful you did. A c-pap is much easier to clean etc than pushing him in a wheelchair. Forgive me for being straight forward. I'm tired. I care about you and your husband even though we haven't met. Blessings to you both!!
