Humm...

I am not in the least surprised there has been little (if any) improvement in condition...... oh, and did I mention that using CPAP following this type of surgery? Oh yeah... I do seem to remember talking about it earlier in the thread. It can certainly make nasal masks much more difficult if not impossible to use....
Ahh the curse of the ENT surgeon who is soo keen to chop bits off without sound and firm clinical evidence.

Hope things settle down anyway

Hi would just like to clarify by saying that i actually use nasal pillows which are different to a mask. I tried the Face mask which covers both your nose and mouth but found the continuous rush of air a little too uncomfortable. Bear in mind that you can only really use the nasal pillows if you can breath your nose, i.e. its not blocked or congested etc. So for me the latest design of headgear and nasal pillows are not too obstructive with freedom to turn your head at night etc. Hope this helps folks....
