northstar9148 82 Posted July 2, 2017 I told my doctor about how big my tonsils are. She looked in my mouth and said, holly Molly!I had arhorscpic knee surgery before and they must have shoved the breathing tube down my mouth. I woke up sore, couldn't breath or speak.I hope the anthesologist doesn't have a hard time with me in surgery.Big tonsils might account for sleep apnea. Anyone else with these issues?Sent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MSinger 348 Posted July 2, 2017 I have gigantic tonsils and went through surgery fine. If it's something your doc finds concerning they may want you to do a sleep study. 1 northstar9148 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northstar9148 82 Posted July 4, 2017 They're wondering about getting the tube down my throat. Because last time I had surgery, I woke up and felt like they must have jammed that tube down my throat. I couldn't talk or swallow hardly.Glad yours went well tbpughSent from my SM-J700T using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
