Oh my gosh! A subject near and dear to my heart, for sure!!!!
My husband has horrible allergies, has a deviated septum, and probably has sleep apnea, too. He gets so tired, and appears to sleep like a rock, but in the end, it isn't restful sleep. Even his son has been diagnosed with sleep apnea at 10 years old, which is very, very unusual. Will he go to the doctor? NO. Will I move to another room? NO. Will I allow him to move to another room, which he has offered to do, numerous times? NO! The severity comes and goes, and lately things have been better. I am a terribly light sleeper, and like you, Kim, I can't tolerate the ear plugs, even though I have tried. I also worry about missing a noise I need to hear, like one of the children, the dogs, cats, etc. I know he will hear nothing because he sleeps so hard.
I find this hard to say, but I guess I will. I sleep much more soundly when he is not here, even if I do stay up later on those nights. I need nothing to help me sleep. Thank goodness for Ambien on the other nights. I don't take it every night, but I have it, just in case.
