I am having surgery on quite a few things at once and would like to know the recovery time. I am having my tonsils, adnoids, palatopharyngoplasty, uvula, septoplasty and turbinate surgery. I have had sleep apnea and can not use the CPAP machine. I am allergic to the masks and have had horrible reactions to them, migrane headaches, snoring and very tired. I have been to numerous doctors to try and find a more simple solution, but this seems to be the last resort. My nose is slightly bent and enlarged turbintes, I have obstructed sleep apnea that is not able to be treated with CPAP, so removing the blockage is the only way. My headaches have been unbelievable, so I only hope that this will help. I am really concrened with how I am going to breathe? I wont be able to breathe through nose because of the packing and my mouth will be in pain from the palato. and tonsils. Is there something that I can have available to have my mouth a bit open, so I don't feel like I need to gasp for air?
I am about to go in for almost all of those, myself. How was your recovery time?
