[QUOTE="-Pjackso, post: 2048724, member: 8119"] Hi guys, Now for something really Off-Topic. I've got a snoring problem. As in - I can snore really Really REALLY loud. The wife doesn't sleep with me anymore for this reason. The wife now sleeps in the bedroom in the opposite side of the house - and I can STILL wake her up sometimes. The snoring doesn't bother me - I sleep fine. But the wife can't handle it. For clarification - I've always had a snoring problem. But it's not related to being overweight. In High-school/college days, I weighed 135-140 lbs. I'm middle aged and a little healthier now at 170~ish. But I've always snored equally. Sometimes it's worse - like when I'm sick, or allergies, or when I'm really exhausted from a long day. I've visited the doctor about this and he just said "sometimes people just snore". The doctor said he could send me to a sleep center for monitoring - but he said he thinks it's all snake-oil. The little bit of internet research typically recommends the forced air mask that people wear during sleep. (The air-mask is not a option.) I've also read about different surgery procedures to 'fix'(?) the flapper valve in the throat. I'd be interested in the surgery options - since it's more of a long-term solution for the root problem.
