I am writing this now at 3 am because I couldn't sleep... dear partner's snoring was driving me insane (again). I finally made some headway with him after a year of "nagging", I managed to slap the pulseox on him a few nights ago. (luckily no severe desats but certainly non-rem desats, I think). That made him think. Next step is to see the ENT, he is getting his insurance sorted out now so hopefully that will happen next.
My partner is very stubborn, very critical, won't take anybody's word for anything... but I suspect that if his DOCTOR told him he HAD to take such a test, he would do it. He questions everything from everyone, but not doctors. So weird. He doesn't ask ANY questions at the doctor's office, just does what they tell him to. My other male family members are like that too. Is this a man thing or what?? So maybe get the doctor, the authority figure as it were, to lay it on him thick!!
oh wow, if you get a doctor all over him, maybe no more snoring? wouldnt that be a dream? and you both would get some good sleep!
Its nice to know that the home tests just might do the trick with these stubborn guys, and yes, I think its a man thing, (sorry guys, I know you
are NOT all this way)
good luck! hopefully we can compare notes when there is no more snoring going on, well maybe the dogs and cats!
