Guest guest Posted March 21, 2004 Report Share Posted March 21, 2004 I'm hoping someone here has some experience in this area for me. My mom is facing possible surgery for severe snoring and also sleep apnea. She is very reluctant to go under the knife for throat/nose surgery (she is getting increasingly distrustful of the medical profession... yeah!) Is this something that could be treated homeopathically? Surely surgery isn't the only cure for this disturbing problem?? (she has tried some sort of machine to help with the sleep apnea, but she found it to be very uncomfortable and ineffective). Thanks!

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 I had the surgery and while it did improve the problem slightly, it was not worth the pain of the surgery. I had better results from loosing weight and eliminating processed foods from my diet. I have just started homeopathy and have had some improvement already.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 That's just it, my mom isn't overweight at all, and eats a pretty healthy diet. So, Amy, homeopathy has helped with your snoring and sleep apnea? Kay ****************** I had the surgery and while it did improve the problem slightly, it was not worth the pain of the surgery.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2004 Report Share Posted March 22, 2004 Yes to some extent, but I have only been to the first visit and had a remedy two weeks ago. However, some of the results have been dramatic. So far this allergy season I have not had to use anything and have been only occasionally slightly stuffy. I used to have to take claritin D everyday.
