I know what you mean, Lynn. Hubby has sleep apnea and before being diagnosed, he would stop breathing. I would sometimes have to shake him or even hit him on the chest to start his breathing. Made a nervous wreck of me. Now, with the CPAP, no snoring.

Yes, AAAAA, he has GERD. It's awful. He has tried and tried to eat earlier and earler but sometimes, especially if we go out (like yesterday) he can't control the timing or eats a little too much, and it doesn't digest quite enough before bed. It hasn't happened in quite a while so I guess we're lucky but it is sooooooo scarey when it does.

Oh, Kathy, I know what you are talking about. He's in the middle of getting some veins removed from his legs and there are days when the only way he can get rid of the pain when he gets home from work is to lie face down in bed.

Also, I used to take opioids for back pain. And when I broke my leg severely, I was taking so many pain pills, I would wake up and my hands would be clenched into fists and it would take me an hour to unclench them. I never figured that one out. Going off of them was hell.

He's snoring away now. I think he's exhausted. (Me too)
