  2. Did you fall asleep unintentionally or did you have to fight to stay awake during the day? More
  3. Did sleep difficulties or daytime sleepiness interfere with your daily activities?
  4. Did work or other activities prevent you from getting enough sleep?
  5. Did you snore loudly?
  6. Did you hold your breath, have breathing pauses, or stop breathing in your sleep?
  7. Did you have restless or "crawling" feelings in your legs at night that went away if you moved your legs?
