Snoring issues?

I know there was a thread on this where ppl had sought medical advice for snoring issues and it can be boiled down to stuff like wheat intolerance and other things that we may never link to snoring. After trying nasal strips and every other thing in the pharmacy, DH has finally decided to go to the doc. Am just wondering if he needs to go to a GP or an ENT specialist or someone else?

TIA

Would also suggest seeing a chiro that has experience in moving cranial plates - sometimes snoring is because there is a mis-alignment in the skull and it can be fixed in a couple of sessions, non intrusively. ENT's tend to want to prescribe medicines, look intrusively into the nose etc. Worth checking out. HTH.

Hmn, thanks ladies. DH is getting increasingly worried that the baby might not be able to sleep with him in the same room (the crib will be in our room till we move to a bigger place). Funny, it never bothered him that I don't get sleep because of his roars. :\: <em>edited by stovetop on 08/03/2011</em>

When my dad's snoring was rapidly forcing my mum to take up residence in their guest room [!!'> he first went to their family GP, who then gave him a referral to an ENT specialist. Not sure how the referral system works out here, but if you have a GP that you know and trust, and that you know has good contacts in the specialist/consultancy field, that's the way I'd go as well. :) Good luck.
