    Snoring can be a symptom of apnea. Male or Female that snores is a candidate for apnea

    My sister-in-law is barely 5' and 100lbs. Fell asleep driving one day. Found out she had sleep apnea. It's not just for fat truck drivers.

    Women don't talk to Men about that stuff. They know just to keep their mouth shut.
