Avatar f tn 5x hour from snoring, and 5.3 times an hour from arousal. I dont get any REM sleep, I know i have PTSD, and this makes the arousal state happen from nightmares. What should be the next step?
Avatar m tn I read an article in the San Francisco Chronicle about treatments for snoring and sleep apnea and I watched the snoring clinic's testimonials on YouTube as well (just search for the clinic's name). Hopefully that will help with your decision. The article is entitled, "Say Goodnight to Snoring with simple surgeries," . It goes in depth about some of the treatments now available in San Francisco medical clinic, http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?
Avatar n tn My father is suffering from some periodontal disease and has swollen and loose gums and he is using dental implants to get rid of it. He has a snoring problem and now showing some symptoms of sleep apnea as well. Are they related to periodontal diseases? We are planning to get an anti snoring device ( http://www.parkerhilldental.com/our-services/anti-snoring-appliances/ ) to control the snoring issue. Is it really effective? Would that enough to solve this issue?
407149 tn?1211732507 the next thing we know, his eyes roll back into his head and he starts snoring. we think he started snoring because his tongue relaxed but we really have no idea. he was totally unresponsive. we slapped him until he woke up and he was like what whats going on? he had no idea what happened. im really nervous because he refuses to go to a doctor. im only 15 and ive been looking things up but i cant find anything. it seems like a seizure because he also started twitching a bit but i dont know.
Avatar f tn I guess I will have to really try and get in touch with my normal physician and discuss the snoring and the results of the test while waiting the 7 months to see the cardiologist for his consultation ( Cant believe they can ask anyone to wait that long to go over the tests). I guess i wanted to know that there was nothing sticking out with big red flags until then.
Avatar m tn I've been snorting coke about 1-2 times a week over the past 6 weeks. Just a recently, my girlfriend complained that I had been snoring really loudly. I figured maybe my nose was plugged or something, but it has continued, and the research I've done points to coke usage as the cause. I didn't switch nostrils, but I never did more than .3 grams in a night (I would only do it on weekends). So my question is this: will the snoring stop? and if so, about how long will it take?

Avatar n tn The upper airway resistance leads to snoring and resulting arousals during sleep. Use of sedative or alcohol and poor sleep hygiene also contribute to snoring. Patients predisposed to this disorder are generally overweight or obese and may have a short thick neck. Sleep apnea is associated with hypertension, diabetes and other cardiac abnormalities. Other conditions to rule out may be sleep deprivation, depression, narcolepsy, medications and hypothyroidism.

Avatar f tn I snored before getting pregnant and since the last trimester my snores have gotten really bad. Like I wake myself up snoring. Lol. How far along are you? I'm 37 + 5. And yes the swollen feet and ankles are normal. Mine are so puffy all the time.
397460 tn?1268533736 Sometimes wake up feeling like I am choking. takes me a min to calm down and get drink of water. Taking some medications for hypertention and predislone. Any suggestions?
1903798 tn?1333905288 Hmmm that is a interesting question...I did snore b4 and I continue to snore post op...but not like I did, and I was checked for sleep apnea... It can be an obstruction causing it that shifted as a result of the surgery...I do not mean the cerebral tonsils, but something else ...mayb the tonsils in ur throat,...I had mine out in the 2nd grade my parents were concerned with my mouth breathing....and I have always wondered if it was chiari related. I also had my adenoids out at that time too.
Avatar f tn I also snored while pregnant but it went away again after birth. Tell your bf to get some earplugs and grin and bear it!
Avatar f tn Apparently I snore now. My older sister who sleeps in a room next to mine just tells everyone in the room that I snore, luckily the other two people were sensitive and are like well she's also has a new addition to her body and that I'm ready to pop any day now!!! I was so upset that she brought it up for no reason!!! I'm so thankful the other two were understanding and didn't make me feel embarrassed. It was so rude!!! I can't control my body!!!
Avatar f tn I'm 30 weeks now , and I have started to snore ... I never snored before I got pregnant ... Did this happen to someone else?
Avatar f tn I use to be a heavy sleeper & my boyfriends snoring never bothered me until I got pregnant but thank goodness for me my boyfriend only snores when he's on his back lol so I just wake him up and tell him to roll over and problem solved haha. I'm sorry though mama.
Avatar f tn I have the same problem! I usually just plug in headphones to my phone and listen to music to drown out the snoring.
Avatar f tn This can be done at home with equipment delivered and picked up at your door. I had that done first and while I have insurance I did note the low cost with some surprise. Check if snoring happens only when he is sleeping on his back - ask him to sleep on a side. There bay be some aids one can wear to discourage sleeping on one's back.
Avatar f tn I used to snore before, but now I even wake myself up snoring. And in the morning my throat gets so sore! I've tried breathe right strips, I can't wear a bridge or anything because I have a retainer at night, I've tried vapo rub. Is there anything else I could try?
Avatar f tn Try propping up on pillows. The extra weight shifts up toward your chest when you lay flat and causes your airway to constrict. If you're like me and the pillows just end up on the floor then just fold up a couple of blankets with some extra pillows and prop up the top of your whole matress. Even a small incline will help a lot.
Avatar n tn I have heard kids snore, especially if they are congested,could be she has a chest infection, as its been 3 days or More Take her to see the Doctor he may prescribe something to ease the cough and tell him about the Snoring" he will listen to her chest and tell you whats going on.
Avatar f tn 25 weeks pregnant and snoring like crazy. I can't really sleep well. My boyfriend wakes me up often to try to get me to stop snoring. It's becoming a problem for the both of us. Anyone else experiencing this or have in the past?
Avatar f tn Its not a problem i just find it quite funny as hes a snorer and used to keep me up, now its the other way around, payback haha!
