I no longer have sleep apnea and sleep better than I have in years.
I'm pretty sure I have a bit of it but I know I can't do the machine thing.....I would not be able to sleep with that on my face. What was the surgery like for it....and recovery time.

I have already had my tonsils out and I don't have a deviated septum
