SOMNOPLASTY

Posted by sickntired on December 28, 2005 at 17:14:57:

Has anyone found that somnoplasty has helped their mild apnea?

I asked my doctor about this and he said something about performing the surgery under general anesthetic. Is this one option versus having multiple treatments done on the tongue usuing local anesthetic during an office visit?
