I almost did, but on way to get a 2nd opinionand have surgery done, fat head former spousetells me “I don’t know why you are going. Youhave not snored in over two months since losing 40 lbs and now sleep with two plump pillows!” The 40 lbs came off in just 4 mos when I switched from low fat foods to Non-Fat. Fat throat tissues reduce with weight loss.If your weight is normal, buy 2 firm pillows forsleeping on back & side. Be sure someonelets you know how this works over 30 days.Cauterized tissue will bleed and hurt a lot.A friend told me that after a few months itdid not work on him, he resumed snoring.I haven’t snored for 5 yrs & kept using 2 pillows like you are going to try. Right?
It’s becuase there are many different reasons why people snore. and it may be the case that in your particular case – somnoplasty is not doing to work.You could try getting a Slumber Guard for your snoring – it’s guaranteed to work – and if it doesn’t – then you get your money back.They are available in chemists, and also online.Operations should only be undertaken as a last resort.
I suffer with sleep apnea, and I need a CPAP – nothing else will help. While you spent a ton of money on this surgery, it is possible that you still need a CPAP to “cure” the apnea and allow you to get a full night’s sleep. If your doctor is not taking you seriously, go to a different doctor for a second opinion. It isn’t “in you head” and apnea that goes untreated can kill. Good luckThis is a direct quote from http://www.sleepdisordersguide.comSomnoplasty ComplicationsThe following complications have been reported in the medical literature. It is here for your information only, not to frighten you, but to make you aware and better informed concerning this procedure.Although many of these complications are rare, all have occurred, at one time or another, in the hands of experienced surgeons practicing the standards of community care.Extended pain, infection, bleeding, or impaired healing. Nasal regurgitation, a change in voice, or velopharyngeal insufficiency whereby liquids may flow into the nasal cavity during swallowing. Failure to cure sleep apnea or other pathological sleep disorders. Pathological sleep disorders, like sleep apnea, are medical problems, which may have associated serious complications. At this time, the Somnoplasty procedure has not been proven to cure these disorders. Thermal or electrical injury to the mucus membranes of the soft palate, uvula, or mouth. This may result in tissue loss by burn. Need for review, or further and more aggressive surgery. Failure to resolve or get rid off snoring. Most surgeons feel that about 80% of patients who undergo a Somnoplasty will have a significant or complete resolution in their snoring; and an additional percentage of patients will notice reduced levels of snoring such that their sleep partners will report that it’s level is no longer offensive.
