Some of the symptoms of sleep apnea are weight gain, snoring, fatique, high blood pressure, diabetes, and depression. Often these symptoms are not associated with sleep disorders until proper diagnoses by a medical professional familiar with sleep health. A professional sleep test is required to properly asses the specific problem and the correct treatment. Take the self test. If you recognize any of the common symptoms, consider a professional sleep study by Christian Care Sleep Center. Call (361) 723-2130

Sleep studies and polysomnography are performed to diagnose a variety of sleep disorders and to evaluate a patient’s response to therapies such as nasal continuous positive airway pressure (NCPAP).
Most people who have sleep apnea don’t know they have it because it only occurs during sleep. A family member and/or bed partner may first notice the signs of sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is a serious sleep disorder that occurs when a person’s breathing is interrupted during sleep. People with untreated sleep apnea stop breathing repeatedly during their sleep, sometimes hundreds of times. This means the brain — and the rest of the body — may not get enough oxygen.
The most common symptoms are snoring and excessive daytime sleepiness. People with Sleep Apnea may have high blood pressure, unexplained weight gain, depression and other health conditions.
Breathing pauses can last from a few seconds to minutes which often occur 5 to 30 times or more an hour while you sleep. Typically, normal breathing then starts again, sometimes with a loud snort or choking sound resulting in poor sleep quality that makes you tired during the day.
Please remember, untreated sleep apnea can increase your risk for:
• Obesity
• Worsen heart failure
• Having work-related or driving accidents
• Hypertension (high blood pressure)
• Heart attack
• Stroke
• Type II Diabetes
• Make irregular heartbeats more likely
Sleep studies and polysomnography refer to attended services for the continuous and simultaneous monitoring and recording of various physiological and pathophysiological parameters of sleep for six or more hours. Sleep studies and polysomnography are performed with physician review, interpretation and report.
The only positive way to know for sure if you have sleep apnea is to have a sleep study, a test that records what happens while you sleep. But, you can easily have a professional sleep assessment conducted.

I want to start by saying I give ChristianCare sleep Center A+A+A+. I have had studies done at other centers and no way compare to the care and treatment that I have had since changing to ChristianCare. From the cozy quiet rooms, comfy bed, and wonderful staff my night study was great. The staff continues to help you and answer your questions after your study where some no longer assist you. I will and have recommended ChristianCare sleep Center to everyone that I know needing a study or supplies. This is my sleep Center!!
Thank you for everything
I would highly recommend Christian Care Sleep Center to anyone who needed a sleep study done. The facility was clean and professional, the staff friendly and knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable. The reports were sent to my physician promptly and my equipment was ordered and received quickly. The staff took the time to explain how to use the equipment and make sure that the appropriate mask was used. If I have questions, I can call and they are always able to give me the information I need. I'm very pleased with my experience and would recommend them to anyone.
Recently I had an episode involving my heart and my cardiologist recommended that I get a sleep study done. My wife contacted ChristianCare Sleep Center and explained the urgency of me getting this study done. They got me in right away and after being diagnosed with sleep apnea they quickly got my device to me and began my treatment. It was the best thing I have ever done for my health. Since being on the treatment I feel wonderful. I am no longer falling asleep during the day and feel better than I have in a long time. If I have any questions or problems I can call and get prompt friendly service. I would recommend ChristianCare to anyone needing a sleep study and treatment. Thank you so much for your courteous and professional service.
Thanks to Christian Care for their great & professional service I've been sleeping a lot better & waking up refreshed. I highly recommend them to all the people in south Texas.
I would highly recommend Texas Christian Care Sleep Center to all veterans and any of those who are in need of a sleep study. They helped me in a time I needed them the most. They went above and beyond to help me. When the VA could not help me Christian Care did. Their facility is very clean and everyone is very friendly. I could not have done it without them.
