My teenage daughter slept in the same room as me for a few nights last week.We got to talking last night and she told me I breath really heavy when I’m asleep.She said it’s not like snoring just really loud steady heavy breathing.I always wake up early but find I’m tired after a couple of hours,could my breathing while I’m asleep be the cause.As far as I’m aware this is continuous throughout the time I’m asleep.

if there is no apnoae no need to worry.
Yes, it can be a problem and it’s one I think I have as well, possibly caused by allergies. If your body has to work that hard to get oxygen, you’re not getting the full rest that you should.
I’d talk to an ear/nose/throat specialist or a sleep doctor to find out more.
Leave your bedroom window open about an inch so you get more oxygen while you sleep. My mother had the same problem and ended up in the hospital one nite because she felt she couldn’t breathe. Found out her blood wasn’t being oxygenated enough. She was on oxygen, at night, all winter in her apartment. So when the weather got better we opened all her windows to air the place out and my sister didn’t quite close her bedroom window all the way before we left. The next day she told my sister she didn’t have to use any oxygen.
She had a Dr. appointment that day and he checked her oxygen levels and said if she continued leaving the window open a bit she won’t need the oxygen anymore.
Make sure you make it so no one can come through the window. I’d hate to hear that you had an "unexpected guest"
☺☺☺☺☺
