Re: Klonopin (benzos for insomnia)
I was on that for a bad diagnoses. It messed me up for 6 weeks. Doctors give it out like candy. I was out on Xanax as well all to find out I had low blood pressure. Benzos are the devil stay away.

Re: Surgery done
The septum is in your nose if it is deviated to bad can really effect breathing and sleep. Causing sinus pain and other problems.

Re: Well Septoplasty/Turbinate reduction
My ENT, who ordered my sleep study, performed the surgery after study, but before titration. Surgery was a breeze - and helped immensely. I have had only one sinus infection since (surgery was in 2008), and I used to have 2-3 a year. Fewer cases of upper respiratory infections too (less stuff drain...

Re: Acid Reflux (Gerd) or any stomach sufferers?
Go see a ENT. There is more than standard Gerd or acid reflux. I was told I had Gerd. Was in meds for a month and couldn't really talk. Went to ENT and was told I have LPR. Scary to read about but a simple scrip can help a ton.
That's just what went in with me.
