Was your sleep architecture normal (e.g., Stage 1, Stage 2, Stage 3/4, and REM in the normal range) in the sleep study?

I had pharyngoplasty, somnoplasty, and GA at Stanford in 12/2006. My AHI went from 23 to 4.8 after those surgeries, but my sleep architecture was not normal (REM % is too low) unless I use a dental device.
