your husband should be tested for sleep apnea right away! he is probably sleep deprived and his heart health is at risk. does he snore? and like snort and wake himself up? that's because he has stopped breathing. there are many reasons for sleep apnea. also if he has a cold or sinus congestion or cluster headaches that can cause these symptoms. but i am thinking he has sleep apnea. after i found out that i have sleep apnea and started treatment on my c-pap machine it took about a week to get used to having the mask on but within 3 weeks i noticed that i was thinking more clearly and had way more energy! call an ear nose throat doctor and they will get you started!
my husband sometimes seems drunk but says he hasn't had any alcohol. what else can cause slurred speech and droopy eyes? . when he gets like this he swears he isn't drunk but his speech is slurred his eyes are droopy or bloodshot and he is slightly unsteady. maybe he's just exhausted. he gets very little sleep probably 5 hours a night average. but i have this nagging doubt and it's really causing problems for us. could it be anything else? he's also very overweight and has high blood pressure (controlled by medication) and is on cholesterol-lowering medication and diuretics. thank you so much for the help.
