Snoring

jonnyburgo

I snore like a bastard, I'm not a chubber although technically may be a stone overweight. Mrs Burgo does not like it, its causing problems. Makes no difference if I sleep on my side. Any ideas? Anybody tried the throat sprays?

Can't be 'fixed' my friend.  It might be worthwhile getting yourself to a doctor to see if you are suffering [unknowingly] from Sleep Aponea.

I've tried everything short of an op. with no joy,

I'm currently losing weight to see if that helps, though tbh my missus has the ears of a bat, so I doubt it'll make any difference.

Can you not stay at your mistress's for a few days to give her a break?

I snore like a bitch. To the point of waking myself. Sleeping on my back helps loads. I don't suppose severla broken noses helped.

A friend had to have a small operation on his nose (I'm not entirely sure what was done) but apparantly that has helped his snoring.

Overweight doesn't help. Alcohol makes it worse. Dehydration makes it worse.

 

I use Breathe-Right adhesive strips at night. My missus says snoring is much reduced when I stick one of these across my nose. You can buy them on Amazon.

Lose that stone. I dropped from 13.5 stone to 12 stone and went from chainsaw-through-a-volkswagen to kitten-on-a-comfy-cushion.

Try these - they stick to your nose and spring your nostrils apart.  It helps me. I get a better sleep with them too.

Get a divorce. Snore as much as you want.

Just give her some ear plugs - that's our solution. At least...it's a solution for my wife. I can't wear them (I'm prone to impacted waxy ears), so I'm shit out of luck when it comes to her snoring.

My missus gave me a right shooing the other night for snoring,
Thing is i was wide awake just lying there.
I dont think i snore so i'm disputing it.

My snoring was getting bad. Very bad. Like really affecting my wife to the point she wanted to sleep in another room bad. Then she did and it affected our relationship. Operations were talked about but I'm told they are brutal and I'm a massive girl with that stuff.

I did this test

I now don't snore and get sex again. At least twice a year. ;-)

They helped me a lot when I used them. But that was when they £1 for a pack of ten, not found them for that price for ages though.

Might help to know what kind of snoring it is though. Mine is because I have a tiny nose, and my nostrils collapse making me breathe through my mouth. Try these tests: http://www.britishsnoring.co.uk/itests/

I don't snore but the wife does like a steam train.

Tried lots of things and this device really worked for her. Not cheap though

If you both get really wasted before you hit the hay you will both snore ........... but neither of you will give a shit

i heard of this exercise that is meant to help/stop snoring by firming up your soft palette
you sing UNG-GAR
thats UNG as in HUNG, and GAR as in GARDEN
sing them very firmly, you can feel something happening

i cant remember now, but something along the lines of 30mins a day for a couple of weeks, then 5-10mins a day after that maybe?

Have a wisdom, one of these worked for me also. Damn uncomfortable to wear but they do work.

However, I no longer need one as I figured out that the effect these anti-snoring devices have can be achieved in other ways. Basically, you need to stop your airway closing when you relax while lying down, causing you to snore. There's various ways to do this.

1) bring the lower jaw forward, as achieved by wearing the above devices

2) position your neck in bed so your lower jaw naturally falls in the position it is in when upright (you don't usually snore when upright). This usually means a few pillows, sleeping on your back, and learning to relax your jaw completely.

Other things I found helped was not eating or drinking at least 1-2 hours before bed, but that might be coincidental.

@hootsmon if you knew my wife you would not prefer celibacy. Basically if you cross pre surgery Heather Locklear with Carlize Theron..

Snoring was not an option for me!
