As above re sleep apnoea. Much more to it than disturbing your partner. Visit www.patient.co.uk for a sensible overview.
And try the Epworth Sleepiness score to assess likelihood of an issue. Google should turn up a calculator and how to interpret the result.

Very accurate test.

Thanks for the info. I took the test;

Normal

Daytime sleepiness is not a problem for you, although a small but significant number of people may have an Epworth scale of less than 11 but still prove to have obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA) and benefit from treatment.

As I am seeing my GP early next month anyway I'll raise this.
