Went to the doctor yesterday; brought up the clicking sound issue; according to the doctor, the sounds may be caused by a number of causes: a side affect of asthma (already alluded to in a prior post); a compression of the lungs and airways caused by weight gain, particularly if you sleep on your back; any sort of physical tearing or occlusion of the airway. The doctor did say if the sounds are causing you to wake up during sleep, they may be an indicator of possible sleep apnea, a condition which can have many serious health consequences, particularly if you have high blood pressure (as I do). I'm going to keep an eye on my clicks if they get any worse...
