Question by mrauscher74: Is snoring a symptom of other serious health problems?
My husband’s snoring drives me crazy & It seems like it’s only getting worse.He snores so often & so loud that a few years ago he had the surgery to remove some of the tissue inside his sinuses, but that hasn’t solved the problem. I have tried to get him back to the doctor, but he won’t go.
Besides the fact that I have a hell of a time trying to get any sleep at night (I can even hear him when I go out in the living room & sleep on the couch with the air-purifier on full blast) I am concerned about his health. Any comments or suggestions??

Has he tried sleeping on his side? There are also nasal openers (not sure what they’re called) that you can get in a local drug store which proport to help snoring.

Question by kathrynhhboyle: Can snoring be a symptom for a cat and can it cause death?
Tabby is a female cat and is 11years old.My cat was overweight about 6 months ago. She was put on perscription diet food by the vet. She lost weight and was back to a healthy weight. She always had some kind of snoring problem or congestion in her nose. Recently, she passed away. Luckily I wasn’t there to see what happened. My brother saw it and said she might have had a heart attack and died instantly. Is there some kind of diagnosis or treatment that I could have prevented?…. I just cant get over it.

My cat snores all the time. Sometimes it’s worse than others. It seems to have really been noticeable the last 5 years or so (he’s 13), but it doesn’t affect him at all.

Sure, it’s possible that it was a nasal tumor or asthma or something like that, but if there weren’t really any other symptoms, then it was probably nothing. It could have been because of winter (drier air), a new fabric softener, or the factory 100 miles upwind of you needed to change it’s filters. It’s even possible that his nasal cavities were dried out with the food change.

I’m very sorry for your loss, but there was probably nothing further that you could have done.
