18. I did the over night sleep lab to get diagnosed.

I stopped breathing many times an hour. My wife used to get worried and give me a jab to start breathing again. The sleep study confirmed this. A CPAP was suggested but since I traveled a lot for work, I opted for my dentist to make the appliance. Amazing. Not only did my snoring stop, but I didn't stop breathing during sleep. That's my story. The poster could depend on his costly cumbersome CPAP or at least try an inexpensive dental appliance. I wish him luck.
