simple solution is to increase the height of 2 legs of the bed..
so your horizontal weight will decrease and breathe more easy..
if you dont fall from the bed :-\

extreme cases .. very dangerous  .. as you effectively stop breathing momentarily.

Leads to tiredness and the tendency to "snatch" sleep ... if you fall asleep in front of the telly regularly, or start to doze when sitting at red lights .. you need to get it checked by a doctor.

mild cases often linked to snoring .. as the blockage of the nasal passage that causes the noise disrupts the airflow and so the breathing is affected.

Mine was cured simply by wearing an anti-snoring gum shield thing. Been wearing it at night for about 7 years now. Ensures I sleep properly because I breathe properly, ensures Mrs E sleeps properly because I no longer keep her awake pretending to be a chain saw ....   :)
