how har, Flora, sometimes the snoring is so bad that I am afraid he had stopped breathing! I will call him to wake up, then I don't know whether he knows I am calling him, he will (auto) turn to another side and continue sleeping (and snoring)! Some friends say maybe losing weight helps but when I know him he is quite fit (and normal weight, now that's another topic, I don't know where all these fats come from...hahaha), he already snores.
I realise the problem comes from the throat. I think it is the fleshy part that covers the windpipe/oesophagus.
Did you try to analyse where the problem comes from, on your significant other?
