> on a whim i posted my fitness tracker sleep stats online today and immediately got 4 people telling me i have sleep apnea

What in your sleep data gave it away?

im getting 40 mins of deep sleep a night and apparently it should be at least 80

also quite a few straight up “awake” moments

My deep and REM durations are higher but my chart is full of waking up that I don't notice or remember, not sure if that's normal, or due to how fitbit measures and classifies things, or if it's a genuine sleep problem.
