Surgery for sleep apnea

Has anyone had the UPPP surgery and was it effective? How painful was the procedure. I can’t tolerate the CPAP and am considering this surgery. Any feedback greatly appreciated.


  1. Hi !

    Despite the fact that everyone's surgical experience differs, Katelynn discusses her UPPP surgery in this article: https://sleepapnea.sleep-disorders.net/living/questions-before-surgery

    If you do end up choosing surgery, I wish you a fast and positive recovery!
