My boyfriend wants to have sleepovers but I am afriad to sleep with anyone(not sex) because I snore really bad and it is embarassing…I’m not overweight and I don’t drink or smoke. =( And I don’t want to do anything noticeable like a mouthpiece because what if he leans over to kiss me? Ugh. I don’t have a lot of money to spend either. Am I SOL? Please help…
Have you thought you may have something like allergies or sinusitis. This can inflame your airways so making it difficult to breath which means you snore! Go to your doctor and have a check up first You never know it might be something quite simple
HELP ME!! My husband has sleep apnea and it drives me crazy in the night!?
My husband has sleep apnea…very badly. His snoring is out of this world LOUD. He’s seen a sleep doctor and has a breathing machine he must wear at night. I know this is uncomfortable for him to wear and a lot of times he doesn’t. So, I’m listening to him snore and getting mad at him for my loss of sleep! Now, I feel really bad for him that he has this condition and has to wear the mask at night. But when he doesn’t wear it he hacks and coughs for hours after he wakes up. It’s not completely selfish of me because I hate to see him suffering like that in the morning. I just am at my wits end. I feel like I’m being mean and nagging when I ask him to wear it and when he doesn’t I ask him to sleep in the other room. What should I do???
First of all I am 60 years old and my wife literally saved my life by MAKING ME SEEK PROPER TREATMENT FOR SLEEP APNEA! AND FOLLOWING THE DOCTOR’S ORDERS PERIOD!
THE MACHINE WILL DO HIM NO GOOD SITTING BESIDE THE BED! IF IT IS UNCOMFORTABLE THERE ARE NUMEROUS FACE MASK AND NOSE PIECES THAT CAN BE FITTED TO ACCOMODATE HIM! YOU SHOULD BE SLEEPING WITH THE HUM OF A SMALL MOTOR!
THE MACHINE GETS SOME ” GETTING USED TOO” BUT IT SHOULD BE OVER WITHIN A MONTH AT THE ABSOLUTE LATEST! THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON TO TAKE THE FACE GEAR OFF DURING THE NIGHT AFTER ABOUT 2 WEEKS PERIOD.
MY WIFE SLEEPS LIKE A LOG AT NIGHT! SERIOUSLY RIGHT NOW WE ARE RECOVERING FROM HURRICANE KATRINA IF WE EVER REBUILD THE HOUSE PROPERLY AND GET THINGS BACK, I AM GOING TO SEE IF I CAN GET HER INTO THE SLEEP LAB AT LEAST FOR ONE NIGHT STUDY! I THINK IT WOULD HELP HER!
THIS MACHINE IS A WONDERFUL THING! BUT IT WILL NOT WORK IF I DO NOT USE IT! I FEEL OVER 40 YEARS YOUNGER AND I HAVE INCIDENTIALLY LOST OVER 50 POUNDS IN WEIGHT FROM LIFE STYLE CHANGES!
MY MEDICINE IS JUST AIR! I REALLY FEEL SO MUCH BETTER! GET HIM USING THE MACHINE EVERY NIGHT! COMMAND HIM TO! NOT ONLY FOR YOUR HEALTH BUT MAINLY FOR HIM!!!
IF HE USES IT I SWEAR HE WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH THE RESULTS !
BUT YOU HAVE TO USE IT!
IT WILL IMPROVE HIS WHOLE CONDITION OF LIFE!
THIS I PROMISE , AND IT WILL DEFINITELY IMPROVE YOURS!
NOW I DO NOT KNOW ABOUT HIS LOVE LIFE BUT IT IMPROVED MINE UNBELIEVEABLE, I HAVE AN EXTREMELY SATISFIED WIFE!
GET THE MACHINE WORKING , STAY IN THE SAME ROOM, IT ONLY HAS BEGUN ! THIS I PROMISE!
AGAIN THEIR ARE NUMEROUS NOSE PIECES THAT ARE SMALL AND ARE QUITE COMFORTABLE! PLEASE GET THAT THING GOING!
PLEASE ! YOU WILL NEVER WANT IT TO GO OFF!
AGAIN HE WILL GET USED TO IT , HE MUST USE IT THOUGH!
Is there any way to stop snoring when I am sleeping? I need more like a tips, solutions or anything except for suggesting me do the surgery. I know the surgery can solve the problem but I’m searching for more lighter solutions…tips would be perfect!
Two ways at the drug store! Either those nose strips that go over the bridge of your nose. (Breathe Right)
Or, Snore-Stop.
Both work real well. Ask the pharmacist if you have any questions. They’re really smart and helpful.
Good luck!
The System I Used To Stop My Snoring Problem Completely
How long did it take for you to feel rested after using a CPAP?
I’ve been using a CPAP for seven days now and I don’ t feel anymore rested then before using it. My wife says I don’t wake up or snore anymore. I thought I would feel better in the mornings from using it. I still feel tired in the afternoons and wanting to take a nap.
It may take a little while….do not give up! It is not just a matter of ‘feeling rested’ but also a matter of life and death! I could not do w/o mine. If I do, the 1st thing I notice (after the headache) is severely parched mouth. If I go on a trip, that is the 1st thing I pack.
I pray that it works well for you. God bless

“A jobless security worker has won a competition billed as Spain’s inaugural siesta championship, napping for 17 minutes in a busy shopping centre.
Ecuadorean Pedro Soria Lopez took first place and 1,000 euros (£890) for his efforts – or lack of them.
Judges praised the 62-year-old not only for the duration of his 40 winks, but also for his volume, notching up snores of 70 decibels – around talking level.
The contest was run by Spain’s National Association of Friends of the Siesta.”

Snoring is not just a nuisance for your bedmate (or, in extreme cases, for your neighbor). It can be a sign of a serious medical disorder called sleep apnea. The first issue to address regarding chronic snoring is whether this is a symptom of sleep apnea.
Use a single low pillow. Sleeping on too many pillows can stretch and narrow the nasal passage. If, however, you are congested, elevate the head by placing books under the mattress to encourage better drainage.
Try to sleep on your stomach, since snoring is less likely to occur in this position. You can buy anti-snoring pillows designed to keep snorers on their side while asleep
Adopt a healthy lifestyle. Extra weight, smoking, alcohol and drugs all exacerbate snoring.
Review your meds. Sleeping pills, antihistamines and other medications increase snoring.
Consult your doctor if you suspect that allergies and nasal congestion may be causing the problem. Make sure your allergy medication is antihistamine free.
Try an over-the-counter nasal strip. These strips may widen the nasal passages and decrease congestion to reduce snoring.
Ask your dentist about using an oral appliance designed to reduce snoring.
