I am a 39 year old female who has been diagnosed with a minor case of sleep apnea. After trying to sleep with a C-Pap machine, and being unable to....my ENT doctor recommends surgery.

Tonsellectomy, a UPPP (which deals with trimming the membranes leading up to the Uvula), and removal of my adenoids.

I am just wondering if anybody else has gone through this as an adult and can give any feedback about what recovery was like?

My surgery is scheduled in two weeks, and I am a bit nervous. I have two children, but this is my first surgery.

Any advice would be most helpful!
