It sounds to me like its possible that your tongue obstruction may be so severe that it's affecting your daytime breathing as well as night time breathing. I think it's appalling, outrageous, unprofessional, and indicative of profound ignorance on the part of any doctor to laugh at any symptom seriously presented by a patient. Clearly, this doctor isn't seriously concerned about the welfare of his patients. You need to get another doctor, or at least seek another opinion from a first rate Otolaryngologist. MHAMM
