On that note, I've heard a lot about how addressing sleep apnea is great but how do you check if you have it in the first place (or, at least, to the extent that would warrant seeing a doctor about it)? 'Being tired during the day' doesn't seem like a strong self-diagnostic criterion.
I tried a lot of sleep tracking with apps and wearables. (fitbit, basis, sleep as android)
I currently use both fitbit and basis, fitbit visualises long term sleep better, basis visualises a single night better.
These devices showed me what my sleep looks like, and further what my "normal sleep pattern" looks like. while I have good sleep now; if I stop having good sleep; I will have the graphs to prove it.
If it's worth saying, but not worth its own post (even in Discussion), then it goes here.
