Sorry, I just started seeing this forum about
2 weeks ago, I guess I should have seen the
archives. When I exercise, my throat sometiems
closes for a second, the way it does when I sleep.
But the doctor already told me that he will only
treat me if I can prove sleep apnea and he wants
a tape with my snoring. HE already saw the huge
tonsils at ghe base of the throat, they're so big
that food gets tangled in one of them. I think
that he's not being honest and it's an insurance
issue. I'm seeing somebody else, the one that has
seen me since I was a teenager (I'm 32). It will
cost me since he's not "in the network".
