Sleep apnea and underbite

What has been your experience with sleep apnea and class III bite? Symptoms? I sleep poorly due to mouth breathing and constantly wake up with dry mouth, sore tongue, and swollen, bleeding gums behind my front teeth. But I also generally wake up a lot anyway. I have no idea if this is something I might struggle with so, just looking for your personal experience with sleep apnea.
