DH is a snorer. We've been through the system, he's had the sleep monitoring and they confirmed he snores (the kids and I knew that much already) and that he snores in a pattern, sometimes snorting himself awake. During all these tests nobody looked up his nose. In the end he was prescribed a mouth guard which frankly is useless.
So here we are 12 months on and the problem is worsening to the point he's in the spare room more than our bed. GP has now prescribed a nasal steroid and antihistamine which hasn't made a huge amount of difference.
DH complains that in the nights he snores he wakes with a dry throat and a blocked nose so we are now wondering whether to try a humidifier in our bedroom. Obviously before we spend £80 on one of these I'd like to know your experiences with them. We already sleep with the window open all year round so there is plenty of air movement in the room.
DH doesn't drink or smoke and isn't overweight. He's tried every over the counter remedy. I sleep in ear plugs but can still hear him and once recorded his grunts at over 110 decibels with an app on my phone
