Haha, well my mom is Chinese so she only believes that one profession exists.

Haha. Funny story. When my mom was growing up her dad took her to a drive up fast food restaurant and a roller skate waitress took their order. When she skated away, my mother told my grandfather she wanted to be a roller-waitress when she grew up. My grandfather (who was a 1st generation Chinese immigrant Physician) replied, “Ingrid, you can do anything you want once you get your M.D.”

True story. Hope you enjoy it.

Based on your symptoms it sounds like you have sleep apnea. The main treatment for that is CPAP, but it depends on how bad your sleep score (AHI) is and what anatomic abnormalities you have. If someone has told you that, then you likely have poor nasal airflow. I would say to make sure you see an ENT and get a sleep study. You can even do them at home now!
