I have a poor sleeping schedule. Will I develop heart problems due to it?

Question

Hi doctor,

I have been going to bed between 1:40 am to 3:30 am for several months since last year. I sleep for several hours, wake up at 7 or 8 am, and go back to sleep from 10 or 11 am to 2 pm. I sleep with bad schedules, and I do not know how to break my bad habit. As a result, I get bad headaches often. Could I get heart problems?

I hope nothing happens to me. Please help.

Thank you.

Yes, this is an inferior sleep schedule. May I know the reason for this?

Do sleep problems mean you do not get sleep on time?

Answer 2

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Thanks for your follow-up question on icliniq.

Fine, so bad habit of watching mobile is the cause for your sleep schedule problem. So if you leave this habit, you will be alright.

Let me know the answers to the following questions,

1) At what time of night do you feel sleepy, like yawning? Like 11 pm or so?

2) Or do you not feel sleepy and watch mobile to pass the time?

Please reply to me with answers to the above-asked questions so that I can guide you better.

I wish you good health.

Thank you.
