1st -Lose Weight: For 5'8" you need to be 160 or less to have a healthy body mass index. With this amount of weight reduction, you will not only reduce or eliminate snoring, you will reduce or eliminate you chance for diabetes as well as other major medical problems! consider take shape for life (www.Thin.Tsfl.Com) with medifast people typically, safely lose between 2 - 5 lbs per week.

Agree w Dr. Gordon: The reason for the snoring needs to be determined before a fix can be identified. Sometimes a sleep study is needed for this reason.

What can I do to stop snoring and allow my wife to sleep?
I snore every night. My wife tells me pretty loudly. I don't think I have apnea. I wake up very rested. I've done this since college. Should I be concerned? I'm 5'9", 160lb.
Wife says I snore 4-5 times a year, typically when I'm extremely exhausted or when I have congestion from a cold. Is this concerning?
I sneeze a lot, my wife says I do snore in nights , is it allergies or something else?I don't have any other symptoms
Ive had sinus issues for years, headache, congestion and drainage. Could this be causing sleep apnea? Im 34 m not over weight. Wife says I snore and Ive been waking up gasping. I also have PACs, if I did hv sleep apnea could it cause them? Thanks?
