Sleep apnea is characterized by obstructed or interrupted breathing during sleep. Snoring is partially obstructed breathing. Pauses are full obstruction. Your spouse is the best monitor for suspicious signs. If they are present, then a sleep study is easy to do.

I've always been confused why it is so hard to find out if someone has apnea.
It seems to me that the "rested feeling" would be a huge indication of NOT
having apnea. All I know is that I sleep VERY soundly, and have a hard time
being awoken by alarms and things, and I pretty much always feel fully rested,
as long as I've allowed myself 7 or more hours of sleep. So would this
have a strong indication of not having apnea, or can you be rested and
not have Apnea?
Just curious.
