Title: Snoring Post by: china red on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 00:28:05 Doesn't bother me in the slightest but seems to annoy other people. Anyone got any good suggestions to either stop it or limit the amount of noise I make when sleeping?
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: flammableBen on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 00:44:38 get 3 whistles, tape one into your closed mouth and the other two into your nostrils. After a few days of snore-whistling your partner will be more than happy to go back to old normal snoring.

Title: Re: Snoring Post by: The Grim Reaper on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 05:54:34 Lose weight, give up smoking/drinking. Get fit. Sometimes snoring can be an indication of an underlying health issue so if it is something that has started recently best to see your GP.

Title: Re: Snoring Post by: Arriba on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 09:04:58 funny this thread being the first thing i see when i put the comp on today, as the mrs woke me up telling me to shut up snoring during the night.
i rarely snore, but have a stinking cold at the moment. Title: Re: Snoring Post by: pauld on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 09:24:22 A "friend" was told by his missus he kept waking her up with his snoring until he got some of those Robbie Fowler strips for his nose - puts them on just before he goes to sleep and not only does his missus not complain (well not about the snoring) but he's getting a better night's sleep as well. Tescos have got them - BreatheRight, they're called apparently. So my "friend" reckons, anyway. Ahem.
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: magicroundabout on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 10:41:40 i've tried those and they didn't work.
i think i need to see the GP about mine as i wake the kids too i snore that loud. i can't hear it though so don't have an issue with it Title: Re: Snoring Post by: Phil_S on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 10:49:09 Guaranteed to work permanently. Place clingfilm over mouth & nose before you go to sleep.
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: Barry Scott on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 11:08:11 i've tried those and they didn't work. i think i need to see the GP about mine as i wake the kids too i snore that loud. i can't hear it though so don't have an issue with it I went and saw a doc about it some time back and talked with a consultant about an op. I think it only had a 70% success rate or something and had a few other negatives that I forget now. It never affected my sleep so I decided to leave everything as it is. :D Title: Re: Snoring Post by: LucienSanchez on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 11:28:03 My girlfriend snores like an athsmatic Darth Vader... those nose strips worked for her. I had earplugs for a bit, but kept missing my alarm
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: chalkies_shorts on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 11:50:14 I'd check out a condition called sleep apnoea. If anyone has it, it doesn't give a fuck what they do until its diagnosed. The cure is 100% effective. If the snoring builds up into a crescendo, stops and starts building up again then there's a good chance you've got it. If you're tired during the day or take naps during the day ( other than lazy scrounging student cunts ) then I'd get it checked out. But you'll probably need to tell your GP what you suspect rather than wait for them to make the diagnosis.
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: DMR on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 12:05:28 I snore and my missus gets on my case from time to time, she won't accept that she's just as bad and she'll be purring away like a fucking walrus after a glass of wine or 5.
Title: Re: Snoring Post by: china red on Wednesday, November 17, 2010, 13:03:56 Cheers for the suggestions, going to try the Robbie Fowler nasal strips.
Only snore when i'm tired or have a cold but at times people have complained about hearing me downstairs.

Only snore when i'm tired or have a cold but at times people have complained about hearing me downstairs. There are different types of snoring - if you snore more when drunk or tired it is generally caused by the lower jaw slipping back and restricting the back of your throat - the RF nasal bands won't stop this (it may seem to at first but will probably be because you are sleeping lighter because you have something on your nose - eventually the problem will re-occur once once your body becomes used to it). Sadly my snoring has been likened to the sound of a B52 at take-off and have been often woken up by air stewardess's following complaints from other passengers on long haul to New York!! - Yes it really is that bad and is significantly worse when I am drunk and have often woken up in the morning barely able to breathe because my throat it so sore and swollen from snoring. Enter stage left the Somni Snoreguard (http://www.britishsnoring.co.uk/shop/mandibular_advancement_devices/tomed_somnoguard_ap.php)... this thing is neither pretty or cheap BUT if you suffer from snoring to a point it annoys other people this thing is a god send - it keeps the lower jaw forward and airway unrestricted giving everyone within a mile radius a peaceful nights sleep - it's one of those things I now cannot live without ad would recommend to anyone he is being woken up by their Mrs...

I see a bird every so often who snores like a resting pannier tank engine waiting for a green down some rural west country branch line. One of the reasons why I see her every so often....
