I snore.
My wife says I don't stop breathing, (I suspect she has prayed for it when my snoring was really bad). I generally go out like a light about 10 - 15 minutes after hitting the pillow. If the dogs wake me up, I have no troubles going right back into dreamland and I wake up at about 6 AM (just before the alarm) energized and ready for the day. (I learned very early in my marriage NOT to whistle first thing in the morning.)
The Doc listened to the above and said it (SA) wasn't likely.
I'm not the one having trouble sleeping.
