I’m guessing it’s from dry air god me but even with humidifier I always have to blow my nose a bunch of times in the morning. Sometimes my lungs feel tight for a while after waking up. This happen to anybody else? Why does it happen for you?

    I’ve had the same thing for years. You should get checked for sleep apnea… I have it but unfortunately the CPAP machines don’t let me sleep. I cannot get used to it.

    But I sneeze at least 50 times and blow my nose as much for one or two hours after waking up.

    The rest of the day my sinuses are clear. I’ve asked Doctors and haven’t gotten any real solutions.

      Damn. That would suck. I hope that’s not the case. I’ll ask my doctor about it. Would I be snoring a lot if I had it?

        Yes, snoring and waking up from a dream where you were suffocating or couldn’t breathe for one reason or another. My girlfriend sometimes wakes me up because she thinks I’m choking. It’s also worse if you happened to drink that night.

      Have you looked into a dust mite allergy at all?

      Do you have a mattress cover that you wash and replace your pillows often?
