Hosehead needs help with pre-op questions to surgeons

[FJB]

Howdy all:

I posted last week that my OSA is heading to the knife. I decided to have the nose obstruction repaired, some minor throat work (NO UPPP, Shudder) tonsils, RW tongue redaction, etc. I've seen down my own throat, and surgery is a compelling treatment in my case, especially with the severity.

I will go on to the GA and MA at an excellent major university center. (Loma Linda Med) We're going for a cure of the OSA. My CSA may be ok on its own. (Everyone has some apparently.)

Could you please help me compile a list of questions to pin-down the docs prior to commencing the procedures? I had surgery before and really wished I had been a lot more specific with the guy.

Thanks All! I genuinely appreciate your sage input.

Joe
