You wrote the post that I've actually been thinking about writing this week. I've had those same surgeries.

The only difference is I'm 5'8" and 175 which is my "training weight". It's what I weighed 20+ years ago when I was practicing karate very aggressively. So weight isn't my problem either.

My CPAP just isn't cutting it. It's at 8 cm. I have to wrap my head in a big band to keep my mouth from blowing open.

I'm switching sleep docs and have an appointment at the end of the month with a neurologist/sleep doctor to discuss remaining options.

Please keep us posted on what you find out and I'll do the same.
