I broke my nose about 10+ years ago. I have been feeling tired every since and can not figure out the problem. I do not get much air in my nose when breathing. General Info: - Testosterone levels are normal - Do not have sleep apnea (Tested by sleep clinic) Symptoms: - Tired all day, always fall asleep in movies, wake up feeling tired (sleep 8+ hours/night) - Erectile dysfunction for many years, not much blood flow to penis (Have never woken up with an erect penis, as most men do) Any ideas?
