What might your body be trying to tell you?

Take a calm, structured look at sleep and cardiovascular symptoms. These tools give general guidance, not a diagnosis, and your answers stay in your browser.

From Dr Sultan

Notice patterns without alarming yourself

These private tools can help organise your thoughts before you speak to anyone. They cannot label or diagnose you, and nothing is sent until you choose to get in touch.

Sleep apnoea risk check

Eight questions. About two minutes.

This uses the recognised STOP-Bang screening questions. It cannot confirm or exclude sleep apnoea. Speak to a clinician if you are concerned, whatever the score.

0 of 8 answered

Louder than talking, or loud enough to be heard through a closed door.

Think about ordinary days, not just after a late night.

A partner or family member may have mentioned it.

Including if you take tablets for it.

Measured around the Adam’s apple. A 16-inch shirt collar is about 40cm.

Sex recorded at birth — it is part of the standard STOP-Bang scoring.

The button activates once all eight questions are answered.

A higher score suggests a conversation may be worthwhile — not that you have sleep apnoea.

Do these tools diagnose anything?

No. They are structured prompts to help you organise your thoughts. Only a clinical assessment can diagnose a condition.

Nowhere. Your answers stay in this browser and are cleared when you leave the page. Nothing is sent unless you choose to get in touch.

Yes. These tools do not replace your GP or a clinical assessment. If a symptom is worrying you, speak to your GP or book a consultation.

A higher score suggests a conversation may be worthwhile — not that you have sleep apnoea. Dr Sultan can assess you and, if needed, arrange a home sleep study.

Not sure where to begin?

Start with a conversation.

Tell me what is worrying you, and I will help you find the most appropriate next step.
