Help me sleep well!

Could be your adenoids.

I had mine out a few years back and now I sleep much better. Mine were really big and blocked my nasal passage so I only could breathe through my mouth. I had enlarged tonsils too so they took those out too and also performed a turbineectomy (sp) - essentially channeled the inside of my nose by 3cm to open up the passages a bit more.

Get it checked out, the above has helped me absoloutely loads. I now don't snore and sleep all the way through the night as well as not choking in my sleep (used to happen 3 times a week, essentially died due to my throat collapsing).

I had this also, had nose cauterised and adenoids done, 2 weeks with bungs up your nose (most horrendous pain ever getting these out) and worked for about 6 months, now back to how i was before..

I never breath through my nose, ever, and always sound like i've got a cold constantly.. Was weird for them 6 months how it changed, but back to normal (blocked) again now!

Adenoids are known to grow back Dave, go get them checked them out again. I'm hoping to fix this, would like to breather properly.

Yeah me too but not going through all that every six months! The pain was undescribable pulling the bungs out

I used to be similar years ago but an operation to open up the nasal passages, the doctor described as drilling bigger holes lol defo worked although still breath more with my mouth more habit than anything.

havent read the whole thread so forgive me, but...

i get this alot, i always sound bunged up and like i have a cold, even when i don't. Really is quite annoying... Apparently you can get your nasal passages bored out  or something along those lines.


ha just saw

how do you go about obtaining the op? as i sound like a muppet all year round 

GP mate, had mine done though and didn't last very long!

[Dave_IOW]

what do you mean? it grew back?

Well feels like nose is blocked 24/7 again yes, medically i have no idea, but that sounds about right!

Hmmm, I too nearly always have a blocked nostril, and struggle breathing nasally.
I always put it down to being a smoker, plus being head butted a few times can't have helped...
