Question by John B: What can I do about my spouse’s snoring problem?
My wife and I have been married for ten years. Her unbelievably loud snoring has always been a problem for us, but now it has grown much worse. I can’t even sleep in the same room with her any more. No one could sleep with this volume of sound, trust me.
She has tried the spray for her throat and the correctional mouth guard. No good. I have tried sleeping pills and ear plugs. No good. She even did a sleep study at a sleep clinic, prescribed by her doctor; their findings were inconclusive, and her quack doctor put her on Prozac. No change.
I didn’t think I was asking too much. I just want to sleep in my bed, where I live. But now, no. We aren’t even speaking any more. What the hell? Lack of sleep is starting to affect my work. I don’t want to sleep in the other room, like some 90-year old man. What else is there to do?

Question by james g: What to do if I was not satisfied about my sleep study test because I did not sleep!!?
About 4 years ago I did a sleep study test at a hospital near my school because of my extreme tiredness during the day. It seemed as though I needed a nap during each class period. I had a horrible time remembering simple things I learned the day before. Since I was young I snored a lot, but my parents decided it was no big deal since my dad snored to. However I seemed distracted and drowsy all the time which convinced me to take the sleep test nearby. I went in and they did what they normally do by hooking up monitors and devices to me. That night it was cold and I had only one blanket. Freezing the whole night I was unable to sleep the 4 hours I was there. At the end of the test they read my chart and said I was fine and did not even snore. I was outraged and told them I did not even sleep, yet they insisted I did. I was young and did not know what to do so I left it alone. Now 4 years have gone by and my brother a 3rd year medical student noticed I was struggling to breathe at night. He noticed I would stop breathing for 10-15 seconds and gasp for air. He said I woke him up so many time that he was worried. I can’t afford to pay for another study so what should I do? Can I ask the place to redo the test even though it has been 4 years or are there other alternatives?

Answer by Hopefully Helpful Go to your PCP and tell the doctor that you are still very tired and you know that you stop breathing throughout the night because your brother told you so. Hopefully your doctor will refer you to a sleep clinic. If you have Sleep Apnea you can be fitted for one of those CPAP masks or have your trachea opened up. I hope you will get to the bottom of this. Good Luck. Feel free to let us know how things work out.
Question by Ann Marie J: Any New Snoring Remedies, I’ve tried just about everything…?
I have a problem snoring from my nose – not my mouth. It is ruining my relationship! I have tried nose strips, a nose clip (it is awful) snore spray and the ENT Doc even gave me a prescription of Nasonnex. Nothing has helped. I already sleep on my side not my back. Anyone have any suggestions??
