[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. By your history and description, possibility of sleep apnea is more. Sleep apnea is due to obstruction of the air passage during sleep. It can be obstructive pathology or due to excessive fat in the neck. Since you are eating rajanigandha, possibility of Upper Airway obstructive lesion is more. You are also obese (weight 104 kg), so fat related obstruction is absolute a chance. So better to consult ENT and get done clinical examination of throat and lynx and sleep study. Sleep study is must for confirmation of sleep apnea. You have to lose weight and stop rajanigandha. You may need CPAP machine at night. Consult ENT doctor and discuss all these. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
