Hi all, I have had this problem for around eight months now and wonder wether it may be sleep apnea. The reason I ask is that it is an expensive process to get tested and I would prefer to have some idea whether there may be a chnace I have it before i do it :)

My symptoms have been

- very poor concentration
- very very tired
- takes time to change focus on objects
- feel like a zombie or drunk
- very 'unalert' , kinda feel like i cant wake up.

My doctor has given me pills for depression, but I truly belive this is not the cause. I just do not have an of the other symptoms that depression brings, (withdrawl, crying) e.t.c I have also had an echocardiogram and been tested for a middle ear infection.

It has got so bad I really really struggle at work and cannot drive because I 'can't seem to process things quickly enough'.

I have a nuero appointment but that is still another two months away!!

Any help would be much apprectiated!!
