You could well have sleep apnea as Ellenna pointed out, but see a Dr for sure as there are many things to rule out first.
I had a sleep test (in a clinic) and they found out that I was having 46 periods of not breathing for up to 20 seconds per hour all night long and I'm 84kgs and 5 foot 10 so not overweight or in any obvious risk group but the Dr said it was my narrow passage ways and a genetic thing. I have been on a sleep apnea machine now for 2 months and have never felt fresher!
My apneas have dropped to between 0.5 and 6 per hour now so this is something you might have to look into as I rubbished the idea at first, but waking up tired is a major symptom as is puffiness and a headache!
iin i wake up real tired
