Hello,

I know this is a sleep apnea forum, but hoping to get some feedback on snoring. Which I guess is a certain sign or sleep apnea.

I have been trying to find a solution to my snoring issue. I sleep on my back. I'm about 6 feet tall, and 190 lbs. I'm somewhat muscular, but I could probably stand to lose about 10 -15 lbs

I finally find that if i prop my head up with 2 pillows, so that it's elevated at an angle. And I couple that with one of those cheap mouthguards that push your lower jaw forward (I think its called Z quiet) This combination seems to squelch my snoring.

My issue with this is that the mouthpiece leaves my teeth sore in the morning, and my bite is off And with my head elevated at an angle, seems to give me a stiff neck.

So based on this, I'm wondering if anyone has any other solutions. I would even consider surgery. My only fear with surgery was that if I got it done, and it didn't fix my problem. But perhaps knowing what stops my snoring, gives some indication on what sort of surgery would work?
