My DH snores really loudly - he sounds like a pneumatic drill. He has never been an ounce overweight and we've tried every remedy, nothing helps. Sorry to be unhelpful.

DH always used to snore dreadfully. I spent many a night in the spare bedroom. Since losing weight he has stopped completely. I don't know if this is at all relevant to you but a stone lost has made all the difference here

Definitely advise your friend about this but also go and ask your GP about the possibility of sleep apnoea. I snore terribly too and it turned out I was having multiple episodes of apnoea every night.

Definitely worth checking out.

Take some earplugs for your friend! grin

Help, I have arranged to go on a holiday with a friend, and we will be sharing a twin room. After booking, I remembered that I snore (my ex said it was terrible, but I don't know how true that was). Now I'm worried about making my friends holiday a misery, and embarrassing myself. Anyone got any temporary cures for snoring? I have thought about trying something like Vicks Sinex for the week we are away, but all suggestions welcome
