You should report these symptoms to your doctor and ask for a blood workup that includes tests for hypothyroidism and other causes of fatigue. Once chemistry is ruled out, you should probably have a sleep study done. If you know that you snore loudly and/or experience interrupted breathing during sleep, you should request a sleep study, which can be used to diagnose sleep apnea and many other sleep disorders. Many different conditions can cause the symptoms you describe.
