I have tried losing weight, snore strips, with alcohol, without alcohol, two pillows (from three), one pillow (from two), Snore Extinguisher throat spray, staying on my side while asleep, allergy medication, generic benedryl, and prayer. My boyfriend has to sleep out on the couch because it gets so bad and it makes me feel horrible. Please help!
I’ve tried the nasal strips and they don’t seem to help I’ve tried them by themselves. I have even tried vicks with the nasal strips, to no avail.
You have to go see your doc to find out what is causing it. Snoring normally has a medical cause so go see your doc and get tested for things like sleep apnea and sinus problems so the doc can tell you how to take care of it.

Definately see your doctor. You may have enlarged tonsils and/or adenoids that are blocking your airway and causing the snoring. It could be other sinus issues. But your best bet is to be evaluated by a doctor to find the cause, and treatment, for your snoring.

I would strongly recommend that you go to a good sleep disorders center for a work-up. Snoring should be taken seriously; it can be a symptom of sleep apnea, a potentially dangerous medical problem. One widely accepted method (CPAP) for dealing with sleep apnea involves the use of a pump that forces slightly pressurized air into the nose. Until recently this required the user to wear a plastic mask at night; recently, however, I have seen reports that cannulas (small tubes placed at the base of the nostrils) are more comfortable and work just as well as the mask. But really — a sleep disorders center is the place to go for best answers to your question.
