Snoring and Sleep Apnea
by sleepCT
Different remedies for snoring have different success rates, as outlined in this informative article. Please remember that snoring can be a marker for significant sleep apnea, a serious health condition with serious consequences. Most people with sleep apnea do not know it themselves, and should be seen by a sleep specialist if they have: excessive sleepiness, or fragmented sleep, or witnessed pauses during breathing, or cardiac risk factors such as diabetes or hypertension, or a history of stroke or "mini-stroke". A list of accredited sleep centers is available at http://www.sleepeducation.com the educational web site for the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
