Agree, my dad snored loudly for years until finally diagnosed with sleep apnea. Before the CPAC, his snoring/sleeping sounded so scary..he would snore, then sounded like a deep throat rattle, then a gurgle/wheezing sound until it started all over again. That was one breath!
I think my mom has it too but refuses to get checked. Hers a little different..she doesn’t snore loudly, sometimes not at all but will often wake up suddenly like she’s choking or can’t catch her breath.
CPAP!
You mom definitely needs to be checked. Sleep apnea is very serious. And, if she got a CPAP, she would feel so much better when she woke up. Hopefully you can convince her.
Glad your dad got his CPAP. Your description of his snoring sounds just like my dad’s was.
