Wow so is he going to have the jaw surgery too? I understand his frustration with congestion, which I get only when I lie down

The MMA is currently scheduled for Oct 22, 2009. I'll decide weither to really go ahead with that once I get the nasal surgery out of the way and see what improvements it brings.

I'm less sure about going a head with the MMA with the confirmation of centrals playing a part in my diagnoses. I'd hate to go though all that and still have centrals... Anyway one step at a time I guess. Am anxious to have the nasal surgery done.

I've actually given up waiting to get my nasal surgery done in Canada. I flew down to Ohio at the end of last week and am going back for the surgery on January 6th.

I just found this, I'm not a regular of this forum. I wanted to wish you the best. I hope your surgery puts an end the nightmare of problems you have been going through. I wish you a speedy recovery, hopefully it will make a drastic improvement in your quality of life.

I also want to give a big thank you for helping so many people, myself included. My wife will soon be a hose head, I hope to provide her sleep doc with data from my wifes CPAP. Wife had centrals during her recent sleep study, her doc isn't sure a Bi-Pap will do the trick. Doc is very interested in reviewing data I might be able to provide from my wifes CPAP. Your software is a very valuable tool for a lot of us hose heads.

Thanks a bunch, hope your surgery goes extremely well.

Ah ok, that makes sense. It seems there's often so many variables in this stuff you can only do one thing at a time.
