The web is full of resources about
stopping snoring, some say you can do it
with exercises s,some sell products to fit
in your mouth or on the nose and other
heavily recommend surgery and implants -
how are you supposed to know which method
is best?

Do the Breathe Right strips work well?
Somebody recommended them to me, and boy
do I need them. My ex would bring my
snoring every now and then. (Maybe that's
why he secretly broke up with me?)

Hey Lonnie
You could do a great service to your
girlfriend if you stay awake when her
snoring wakes you and listen to her
breathing to determine if there are
periods when her breathing stops for many
seconds at a time. If it does, she is
suffering from sleep apnea, and her
snoring is one of its symptoms. If it
seems like she has sleep apnea, get her
tested by a sleep specialist. If left
untreated, sleep apnea can lead to many
serious, even life-threatening,
consequences.
