A few years ago I dozed off sitting watching the television and woke while snoring. A few months after that I half awoke with the sound of myself snoring again. I was a little disturbed this time because it was kind of loud. Well a few years later and it has slightly increased in volume, much to my displeasure. I have been tested for sleep apnea and I do not have this...So happy about that. Whenever I visit my cousins house and I take a nap, they nudge me and say "Hey you're getting a bit loud there." Now from other witnesses they tell me that when I am really tired I am the loudest but usually I will snore for about two hours and then I stop.
I have a male friend who snores so loud that you get a little concerned because most never get that loud. I have seen him stop breathing and he is being tested for sleep apnea which he knows that he already has. (He is overweight)
Another friend of mine had a house-sitting gig over Halloween. She asked me to stay overnight as she was a bit nervous. Well at the end of the evening we both slept in opposite corner bedrooms in this big house and the doors were closed. . I awoke in the early hours of the morning to this sound and I got up to investigate. I opened the door and walked down the long hallway and stood outside her bedroom and was in shock. The noise I was hearing was her snoring and it was the loudest I had ever heard from a female. In the morning I advised her to get it checked. (She is overweight)
At the movies in New York recently I watched a gentleman be asked by management to leave because his snoring was so loud that you could not hear the movie comfortably. They refunded him his money.
I could go on and on but I know married couples who have seperate bedrooms and even have seperate rooms on vacation because either one or both snore at high levels.
I really feel for people who have to live with this issue because when you are trying to get rest it can get really annoying, especially if you are a light sleeper.
So have any of you had to deal with or are you affected with snoring issues with a significant other, wife, husband, friend or oneself?
