Default What other problems could be mistaken for sleep apnea?

I have many symptoms of sleep apnea but my sleep study shows that it is not an issue. I am tired all the time, no energy or motivation. Depression and anxiety are a major problem. I wake up many times a night feeling like I cannot catch my breath, like my chest is very heavy and not getting enough air/oxygen. What other conditions could cause these symptoms?

It could be a few things that are going on,first off I would have my thyroid checked out by a Dr.they do this by a simple blood test,if you go to www.webmd.com and type thyroid problems in the search bar,it will show you a lot of info regarding this.It could also be the pillows that you are sleeping on,are they hypo allergenic? They also make pillow covers that you zip on your pillows which is suppose to help with any kind of dust mites.I would check into these things it could be the cause of what you are experiencing.Hope this helps.
