Question: Anyone had surgery for sleep apnea ?Is such a thing possible ? I have tried many types of masks and they really do bother me. Also I want to be more active at church & etc.but my hair is always a mess from the contraption. Also I don't know if this is related to sleep apenia but I always feel like I have something hanging in my throat that I cannot move one way or the other. I thought it might be mucus and it may but I wonder. Any thoughts on this ? I am 76 , on my feet and take a lot of prescribed medicine.
Answer: sounds like a sinus problem to me. Figure out if the room is too humid, too hot, too cold, too dusty, too smoky, etc. and solve that first. Sleep apnea means you're not getting enough rest, means you're not reaching the REM and are tired when you get up. I'd make sure I was in a darkened and airy and fairly cool room and if you have a problem breating then try the product "breathe-rite" on your nose to open the air flow.Perhaps the hang in your throat is a side effect of the medication you are taking. Could be that it makes your sinuses drain. Do you take that medication before bedtime? Can you switch and take your medications in the morning instead?
