Question by unwonted: For those who can’t tolerate the CPAP machine has anyone had success with any other…?
…anti-snoring devices?
Hi, I have a CPAP machine for a mile case of sleep apnea but it isn’t very comfortable. I’m wondering if anyone would recommend any of the other devices available such as a mouthpiece, chin strap, special pillow, or any other device or method you may have tried? Thanks

It is always important to follow the instructions of your physician – some types and degrees of sleep apnea can be helped with other devices than the CPAP machine but if you were prescribed the machine, it is probably because nothing will quite do the trick.

I have tried all of the items you suggested and eventually they did not work sufficiently to help me to continue to breathe at night.

I know that the CPAP isnt the most comfortable piece of equipment, but you do get used to it (we are very adaptable, we humans) and for me, it has given me the best sleep ever in my life.

I would clearly see if your physician thinks you can make the substitutions.

crush little pieces of powdered donuts into each nostril…it’s nice, soft & cushiony for their airways..
plus it might still be edible enough to eat in the morning.

It is possible to wake yourself snoring if you get loud enough or actually stop breathing.
Sometimes you actually let out a big snort after an apnea. You may want to get this checked out. It could be a very serious health hazard. Good luck

I’m looking any oral snore therapy gadget that’s available in Asia, particularly in the Philippines or Indonesia.
