As far as I'm aware she sleeps soundly, never really complaining about being overly tired. Do you think it could still be sleep apnea. She's a nurse so probably won't listen to me lol.

Yeah, apnea doesn't always manifest with obviously disturbed sleep and tiredness. But the sleep disturbances are usually there under the surface, and the problems it causes are still going to occur. Get on top of it early, no big deal let it keep going for decades, and you can run into the serious stuff

I mean, the snoring alone generally indicates sleep apnea.

When I convinced my wife to go in they told her that if you stop breathing 30 times or more an hour, that's severe sleep apnea...

Her breathing stopped more than 100 times an hour(!)

What convinced her to go was I recorded her one night.

She has a CPAP now and refuses to sleep without it.

My partner got soooo mad when I finally recorded her. She wouldn't believe me.

Then she dove straight in with the studies and cpap and eventually a surgery to trim her uvula. Took a bit to convince her that I do not record her sleeping for funsies. All is well that ends well, I suppose.
