Evaluate Your Snore Score

If you answered true to questions 1-4, your snoring probably interferes with your personal life.

If you answered true to question 6, you may be a positional snorer. You may benefit from sleeping only on your sides.

If you answered true to questions 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, or 10, there is a good chance you may have sleep apnea. To locate a sleep physician in your area, please visit the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.

This snore test is not intended to substitute for medical evaluation by your physician. To learn more about sleep apnea, read more in the Snoring & Sleep Apnea section of this website, or visit the web site for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
