I snore, but I can't tell if it's from breathing with my mouth open, or just from sleeping on my stomach. I am also not sure if I have sleep apnea. What should I do?

In order to determine if you have sleep apnea, you need to have a sleep study. This is when you go into the hospital or a special clinic and they monitor you sleep including brain wave, breathing, and quality of sleep. This will determine if you have a sleep pathology that needs treatment. Treatment for sleep apnea includes CPAP machines and dental mouth guards.

I sleep on my stomach and I have a sore ribs all the way up to my sternum, only on my left side. What should I do?

If sleeping on your stomach causes pain, I recommend trying to sleep on your back or your side. However, if any pain persists, I suggest seeing your doctor.
