Sleep Apnea Surgery Success Rate

 - by admin

sleep apnea surgery,,,yes or no?

I am thinking of getting the surgery where they take out my tonsils and uvula. I have severe sleep apnea and have done the sleep studies and have a cpap (hate it and don’t use). I would like to hear from people who have had the surgery and what is the outcome. I keep hearing 60% success rate. I don’t want to go through the recovery if it isn’t going to work.

The success of the Sleep Apnea surgeries are between 50-60%. Those odds weren’t good enough for me to risk it. I wasn’t real excited about some surgery I needed for a nerve that was pinched with an 80% success rate overall and a 95% success rate with my surgeon. I know you hate the CPAP but they work and are not invasive. I’ve used one for about three years and now I can’t sleep without it. I have come to love it.
