@jimhd so was your apnea corrected by the surgery? If not, I just wanted to say that Linda had sleep apnea for the first 39 years we were married. We tried a number of things such as breathe-rite srips and other tricks (escape my memory at the moment) but she always resisted a cpap. Finally about 3 years ago she tried a foam wedge which elevated her upper body (see Amazon link below) and her apnea was gone immediately and has not returned. Just thought I would pass that on if you still have apnea and have not tried this. Hank

Hi Guys, just wanted to say something you probably already know but just in case you do not, I feel compelled to say that sleep apnea is a comorbid disease. It is very serious and MUST be treated. For those who may not know, the diagnostic is an overnight sleep study where you are wired up like you can't imagine and monitored . Sleep apnea is usually taken care of buy a pulmonologist. I care, Sunny
Surgery just made me breathe better.
