Great news, Riveter. Good luck sleeping tonight. This is the one apnea related surgery that I have had that I would do all over again if I had to. The difference in ability to breathe through my nose was remarkable.

Indeed. I can fully breathe through my nose now, whereas before one or both sides were always stopped up. And I am sleeping without CPAP with at least equal results as with CPAP. I spent 7 years on CPAP with a diagnosis of 'severe sleep apnea with intolerance to CPAP' with very poor results. It may be my problems were more sinus and septum related than palette related.
