One of the reasons that my wife wouldn&#8217;t want me to sleep next to her at night was my snoring. I think if I could solve that snoring problem she might let me go back to be in the same bed with her.<p>How do you handle it with your husband who snores?
Do you kick him out? Do you just tune it out? or Do you move to another room?<p>Does anybody know anything about anti-snoring product that works? I read about snoring remedies such as &#8220;D-snore&#8221;, &#8220;SNORenZ&#8221;, &#8220;snoreless&#8221;. I also read about the mouthpiece and the nosepiece. What about the surgery itself?<p>I&#8217;m greatly appreciated for any information.<p>[ January 25, 2002: Message edited by: OffOnOnOff ]</p>

DEar OOOOO<p>You can to the right place. My neighborhood petitioned me to do something about my snoring. Go to your GP and request a sleep study. They wire you up and determine the level and type of sleep problem you may or may not have.<p>There are pac machines and surguries and even dental devices that will help with the snoring all covered by medical ins. This is due to the health problems that can be attributed to the break in sleep patterns caused by snoring.<p>The machine is the only one I am told guarantees to stop all snoring. I can attest to that. Surgury has about a 70% sucess rate and depending on whether or not you have severe sleep apnea may not be appropriate at all.<p>IMO snoring can be cured but the path probably is through medical advice not the over the counter route.<p>Good luck to you.

Dear OOOO...<p>My dear boyfriend uses the breathe-right strips every night. It has probably decreased his snoring by 90%. <p>allison

I have used a breathing machine for about 7 years. I don't go to sleep anywhere without it. I was tested in a sleep lab, diagnosed with sleep apnea, and was prescribed the machine. It has made a 1000% positive difference for me and for my wife. Go to your doctor and ask them to order a sleep study for you. That will tell for certain if you have sleep apnea, which by the way is an extremely dangerous medical condition if left untreated.

NerverAgain, May I ask: What is the breathing machine? Is it expensive? How does it work?<p>Thank you in advance.<p>[ January 25, 2002: Message edited by: OffOnOnOff ]</p>

ok if u have a snore that could wake the dead then i could see being a little annoyed with it???? [img]images/icons/confused.gif" border="0[/img] however, when my H is very tired, he could not only wake the dead, but he could stir the dead dead!! haha...anyway...all i do is push him over on his side. he usually just snores on his back. if that dont work......i wake him up and tell him he is snoring [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] ....he usally quits?? <p>good luck,

2 words: MAC'S earplugs<p>They work like a charm.

What a timely topic!!<p>My H has always snored a bit, but in the last few months it's gotten worse. He goes to bed very early (8:30-9 PM) and often I'm not ready to go to sleep that early, so I go up later, and the minute I walk into the room, boom! [insert sound of snoring here]. Sometimes I'll try to ignore it, but I'm often wound up when I stay up too late, and find it too distracting. Or if he stops for a while, it's like waiting for the other shoe to drop. Usually I'll go sleep in the bedroom downstairs.<p>I don't like to do this. I don't think it's good for a marriage. My H was laid off last week (again -- sigh) and his emotional state is kind of fragile anyway. But now, with one income, I simply HAVE to be able to work, and that means I need sleep.<p>Now, I've been known to snore too, and sometimes HE'S gone downstairs, but he hasn't had to lately.<p>I always feel embarrassed when he goes to sleep downstairs, and I imagine he feels much the same way when I do. <p>Sometimes when I go downstairs, I'll wake up around 3 AM and go back upstairs, and if he's not snoring, I'll crawl back in.<p>My H will not take a sleep study and will not consult a doctor. He has a deviated septum and does not want surgery.<p>This is the only option I've found.

Ohhhhhh Hanora! I'm gonna try your "remedy" and see how H reacts!! ROTFLMAO Thanks for the "advise"!!!

I vote with the "nudge and take advantage of him approach" At least you won't be mad at each other, and he loses sleep too! [img]images/icons/wink.gif" border="0[/img]

Hanora,
The Balls? I wouldn't mind. But the thing is she wouldn't even allow me to touch her at night and she wouldn't want to touch me either. Now you are talking about the balls!! [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif" border="0[/img] <p>Last night was the second time I tried to sleep next to my wife since last weekend. I don't know if you have read my other post. For the first time in 11 years I was allowed to sleep next to my wife last week (no physical) it lasted two hours. She got up and slept on the couch because she said I snored. Last night, my second night, it lasted four hours. She got up and went to the couch also.<p>I don't know if I want to try the third night either which is supposed to be next weekend.<p>[ January 26, 2002: Message edited by: OffOnOnOff ]</p>

Yes I did read your other post and I guess my method wouldn't work for you, but it might be effective for some other couples.<p>My husband and I had never discussed snoring except to joke about it so last night I told him about my "cure". After he stopped laughing he said if we could patent it, we'd be rich.<p>Good luck with your next attempt. Take care

I got an email today about snoring, with a link to this website. I haven't checked it out, but you might take a look-see.
SnoreRx<p>Hope it works if you try it!

Hey!
I'm glad you didn't give up! Try again this week and maybe you will get to that 8 hour mark eventually! Keep up the good work!<p>Too bad it hasn't been every night as, she would eventually lose so much sleep that due to sheer exhaustion, she would sleep through the night regardless!<p>And yes, hanora's suggestion is hilarious. It would definitely stop my husband from snoring and immediately wake him UP, UP, UP!!!! Without a doubt! [img]images/icons/grin.gif" border="0[/img] <p>I'm with MelodyLane offer her some earplugs...
