I had sleep apnea for 18 years of my life and the only indication was chronic snoring. When I had my sleep study done my blood oxygen content was fine but they found I was waking up 20 times per hour (every 3 minutes) and I only got 3 minutes of stage 4 deep sleep per night. (think about that)
I was already getting straight A's in school and was captain of sports teams in high school, but the first night I slept with a CPAP machine after that study, I woke up and felt BRAND NEW. It was insane. My whole body from head to toe felt more rested and restored. My life has since gotten a lot better and I've felt more outgoing and healthy.
If you have any shred of a doubt I would get tested. Heart attacks have run in my family and I think it has a lot to do with sleep apnea.
