Answer:
Excessive sleepiness despite the hours and hours of sleeping is a symptom of a sleeping disorder called Obstructive Sleep Apnea or OSA.
What are the signs and symptoms of Obstructive Sleep Apnea?
Loud snoring
Dry mouth in the morning
Unrefreshing sleep and morning grogginess
Headaches on awakening
Night sweats
Indigestion during the night
Problems with memory and concentration
Increased urination at night
Daytime sleepiness
Irritabilty and/or fatigue during the day
Depression
The most common symptoms of obstructive sleep apnea are snoring, gasping for breath, choking, short pauses in normal breathing patterns, and sudden awakening when sleeping. During the day, you may have headaches and feel extremely drowsy because you do not sleep well at night. In severe cases, obstructive sleep apnea can eventually lead to heart failure and pulmonary complications because the lungs can’t provide enough oxygen to the blood, or remove enough carbon dioxide.
You may feel like you have slept all night or during naps, but with OSA your body is continually working in overtime to keep you breathing. When an obstruction occurs your heart rate increases to help push oxygen to your brain, your brain is telling your chest wall and abdominal wall to continue the motion of breathing to try and force the airway open. You awaken enough to take a breath and then fall back asleep where the cycle begins again.
You may not recognize or have the other symptoms listed, but the only way to know if you have the sleep disorder is to contact your physician and request a sleep study.
Your doctor will perform a sleep study. This is a painless test in which you stay overnight in a hospital or independant sleep study laboratory. Sleep labs are designed to be like hotel rooms. While you sleep, respiratory therapists or sleep techswill monitor and register functions such as heart rate, respiratory rate, airflow, and blood oxygen levels. A audiovisual system also records snoring and body position.
Treatment of OSA is done with Continuous Positive Airway Pressure or CPAP that splits the airway open while you sleep relieving the obstruction and the symptoms of OSA, including headaches and excessive sleepiness.

Do you eat what is considered a healthy diet? Plenty fresh fruit and vegetables, drink lots of water? Feeling tired can be a sign of diabetes or a thyroid gland problem! Go to your GP and ask for a check up to be on the safe side.
