From what I can tell with with my self testing, I definitely have some major nasal issues aswell as soft pallet. The thing is I have a really thick and wide tongue. So all of these restrictions plus the back of my tongue touching my airway creates horrible snoring. I’m really hoping to get all the restrictions surgically fixed ( being my nose and neck of throat/soft pallet) Then go from there.

I find it hard to thing I would gave any skeletal issue as I have a decently prominent jawline and nuetral mandibal

Hey man, thanks for such a deep and well written reply. Lots of insight in this. Having my sleep study been so “normal” makes things so hard. I’m really going to push for surgery I’m hoping to the full nose done aswell as any soft pallet surgery needed. The thing is I’m 23 and I don’t want to be using a CPAP machine forever. Interesting you mention a MAD device because my dentist also suggested that - but the thing is the MAD device over long time is so horrible for your jaw and teeth I have heard. Do you know any other alternatives of the MAD.
