Having lost a lot of weight .over 3 stone , due to the stress of hubbies last illness I sleep better and don't snore so loud , so I am told by grandson when he stays here :-P

There's no catch-all cure for a multitude of causes. If you read the link, one of the first suggestions is to have a ball sewn onto the back of your pajamas. This is to encourage you to sleep on your side.
If that isn't possible because of an injury, work through the other suggestions.

Apparently my snoring used to 'rattle' OHs 'ear wax' and could be heard in other rooms. Over a year ago we both stopped smoking cigarettes and swapped to e-vapours. That's virtually eliminated the catarrh produced. Result? No more snoring!

I snore so loud I wake myself up !! Often wonder what the noises are as I emerge .

Even worse I dribble too so have to have pillow protectors under the pillow case .

Even then it's new pillows every so often as they take on the look of having been peed on !!

Ive been snoring all my life (when sleeping) . Been woken by an angry wife digging me in the ribs hundreds of times.. It's not as though the act was deliberate, I blame my sinuses. Thing is for half my marriage we have been sleeping in separate rooms.
When I spent a long time in hospital due to injury I was informed by staff and patients that I snore loudly every night. Isn't there a cure by now? :-\

I was told by all my family that I was coming near to being killed while I was slumbering in bed. My snoring was very bad and so bad I would wake up as if I was choking and heart was racing. No one was getting any sleep. My brother has to have oxygen overnight for the same problem. I went off to see the doctor and was given a hayfever nose spray. Told to squirt just inside and to the side of my nose at bedtime. This was to widen the blood vessels. I have been doing this for 6 months but although not cured, it is so much better now and the household hardly hear me.

I currently have a really snotty cold and, last night, I was coughing, sneezing and trying to sleep.

Every time I snored, and it was going to happen with the state of my sinuses at the moment, OH prodded or tickled me.Eventually I explained to him that I was doing my best and he kind of migrated to his side of the bed.

When I woke up later to go for a wee,he was sawing logs over there and I didn't even know he had a chain saw!

sleep in another room

wear ear plugs

Is the snorer aware the noise is upsetting the person they live with? If they won't recognise the distress, there isn't a lot that can help.

The following link has some suggestions they might like to try.

Short of keeping some one awake or cutting their throat, is there a cure for snoring?
