    Holy crap that’s horrifying. And it didn’t work, what the F.

    Sorry to hear that.

    Oh geez I just looked it up and the recommended surgeries are lasering off your uvula, parts of your tongue or soft palate.

    Oh get out of here, those cannot be the healthiest solutions.

      Funnily enough, it’s what i have been considering for a month now. I don’t wanna snore and I’m ready to call up a doctor over it.

        Best o luck. Have you exhausted all nonsurgical options already?

        If you’re set on surgical, it looks like rather than removing tissue in the hopes of removing obstruction, they can implant pieces of plastic that will encourage the growth of scar tissue that reinforces the structure of the soft palate so that it doesn’t collapse and cause snoring.)

        I wouldn’t start taking things out of my body unless there was no other option.
