Sleep Apnea is very serious, and occurs when you stop breathing in your sleep. Your body has a difficult time restarting itself, and you snore most of the night. If you have sleep apnea, it's critical that you get it checked!

I had sinus surgery to correct my problem. I also had chronic sinus infections, headaches, and snoring that was keeping the family awake. The surgery was by far the best thing I have ever done for myself. I do not snore now, not one bit! Have had one sinus infection, and but a small handful of headaches, none being migraine, and the headaches were what got me in there. I'm sorry I don't have over the counter advice, it seems you have done about all you can. Maybe someone will have an herbal remedy for you, good luck.</div>

Unfortunately the only way to know for sure is to have a sleep study done and for that you need to go to a doctor. If cost is a problem, you should try to get individual insurance before you are diagnosed with something so it will be cheaper to start. However if you don't want to do that; you can still get treatment from a doctor without insurance. You need to see a pulmonologist, with no insurance you won't need a referral just the payment up front about $150. The sleep study will cost $2000-$3000 depending on where you live. And to get something called a CPAP to stop the 'snoring' and get rest so you don't develop more serious problems can cost from $500-$2000 depending on the machine you get. I have sleep apnea and didn't get it solved until it was too late. I now have heart failure because I didn't want to see a doctor for it because I had no insurance and no one told me how serious it was. Oh yeah and another thing, sleep apnea has very little to do with weight, however sleep apnea can cause you to gain weight with the little tricks you learn to stay awake during the day. I know them all, even if you won't be honest and admit them to yourself. As I stated before I have sleep apnea, so does my father (who is slim) and so does the PA at the pulmonologist (who is also slim)</div>
