According to your dentist, one of these conditions could be sleep apnea, a condition often associated with chronic fatigue. Of course, your dentist doesn\u2019t want you to confirm that to be the only possibility.<\/p>\n<p>Today, he\u2019ll be discussing what chronic fatigue could be a sign of, what the other symptoms of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleeprehab.com\/sleep-apnea.html\">sleep apnea in Plano<\/a> are, and what he can do to help.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>What Diseases are Associated with Chronic Fatigue?<\/h2>\n<p>If you experience chronic fatigue with no explanation, ask your doctor about the following diseases often associated with fatigue symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Liver Disease<\/strong> \u2013 Damaged bile ducts can allow harmful substances into your liver, causing primary biliary cholangitis.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Anemia <\/strong>\u2013 When the blood isn\u2019t getting enough iron, iron-deficiency can easily occur.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Heart Failure <\/strong>\u2013 This occurs when the heart fails to pump enough blood throughout the body, giving more priority to the heart and brain, rather than the limbs.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Narcolepsy <\/strong>\u2013 Uncontrollable episodes of falling asleep, disrupted nighttime sleep, and vivid hallucinations all accompany fatigue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Stress <\/strong>\u2013 If you\u2019re not dedicating enough time to sleep due to work or other obligations, lifestyle changes may be needed to reduce your fatigue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Advanced Age <\/strong>\u2013 As you age, muscle mass begins to reduce, especially if you don\u2019t participate in any physical exercise.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Underactive Thyroid <\/strong>\u2013 When the thyroid doesn\u2019t produce enough hormones, it can make you feel sluggish and even make you gain weight.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Vitamin D Deficiency <\/strong>\u2013 Vitamin D is key for bone density, muscle strength, and tooth health. Chronic fatigue can easily set in when the body isn\u2019t receiving enough.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chronic Fatigue Syndrome<\/strong> \u2013 While no cause has been determined, this condition is often linked to viral infections and psychological stress.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The cause of chronic fatigue isn\u2019t guaranteed to be sleep apnea, so it\u2019s important to see a specialist if your dentist determines it isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n<h2>How Do I Know if It\u2019s Sleep Apnea?<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re often fatigued, sleep apnea is typically accompanied with the following symptoms:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Feeling fatigued after a full night\u2019s sleep<\/li>\n<li>Choking or gasping while sleeping<\/li>\n<li>Frequent urination<\/li>\n<li>Loud snoring<\/li>\n<li>Mood swings or sudden signs of depression<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It\u2019s one thing to not be as well-rested, but chronic fatigue is characterized by extreme tiredness and difficulty performing even the most basic tasks.<\/p>\n<h2>How Do I Get Treated for Sleep Apnea in Plano?<\/h2>\n<p>According to your dentist, sleep apnea is treatable. The main two ways are the CPAP machine and an oral appliance. In some cases, patients can benefit from using both at the same time.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>CPAP<\/strong> \u2013 Short for continuous positive airway pressure machine, this device forces air via a nasal mask during sleep, confirming enough air gets to the patient.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Oral Appliance<\/strong> \u2013 This works by shifting the position of the jaw during sleep, opening the airway and allowing air to flow through properly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Is your snoring in Plano driving your partner crazy? Don\u2019t hesitate to schedule an appointment with your dentist and determine if sleep apnea is present!<\/p>\n<h2>About the Author<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sleeprehab.com\/about-us.html\">Dr. Keane Fedosky<\/a> earned his DDS degree from the Baylor College of Dentistry.
