“While many of my friends have a problem with sleep, some people still have to use medicine, but I lie down and sleep right after a few seconds.They are quite jealous of me, I also think it is because I have good health.When I went to a health examination, I knew I had cardiovascular problems and it was one of the warning signs that I didn't realize.I was very shocked but also felt lucky because thanks to this to the doctor, I could find my health problem sooner" - Mr. Huynh recounted.
The doctor warned 4 diseases hidden behind the sign of sleeping too fast
Dr. Shao Yuhao (Taiwan, China) is the examination and treatment for Mr. Huynh.He said:“There are many studies showing that if a person sleeps in seconds after lying down, it may be a sign of hidden health problems.In a mild level, it may be because you are too tired, stressed all day or sleep seriously.It could also be due to the side effects of some drugs and foods.This situation is usually only temporary and will disappear when adjusting the lifestyle or stopping the drug.
In severe cases, this may be a sign of pathology, usually chronic.At this time, the situation of going to sleep too fast will last.It may be accompanied by easy sleep but hard to wake up, not difficult to wake up but sleeping still tired when waking up, always feeling sleepy throughout the day. ”
In particular, Dr. Shao pointed out 4 common diseases often hidden after the situation just lying down and went to sleep immediately.That is:
Cardiovascular disease
People with cardiovascular disease, especially heart failure, may feel very tired and fall asleep as soon as they lie down.This happens because the body needs "rest" to compensate for the fatigue because the heart cannot provide enough oxygen to the organs and tissues in the body.Especially in the state of lying down and at night when the blood is thicker.
Diabetes
Diabetes, especially without good control, can change the sleep cycle.High or low blood sugar levels can make the body feel extremely tired and lead to immediate sleep.However, this sleep is usually not deep and easily interrupted.
Sleep apnea

People with sleep apnea (Sleep Apnea) may feel tired and sleepy right after lying down due to lack of oxygen throughout the night.They often feel tired, even though they have enough sleep because their sleep is constantly interrupted due to sleep apnea.
Psychological stress and depression
When faced with stress or depression, the body can fall into a state of deep fatigue and want to sleep immediately as a way to "escape" anxiety and stress.However, this sleep may not be quality and lack of real recovery for the body.People with depression may have insomnia or always depressed, excessive sleepiness, very quickly fall asleep when lying in a comfortable space - depending on the case of the disease.
Dr. Shao emphasized that the above does not mean that you just go to sleep easily, very quickly there is disease.The pathology also has no such single signs, but also many other abnormalities.Therefore, it is best to have regular health checkups, to the hospital as soon as there is an abnormal change despite small body.
