Ouch...I have an idea of what you went through. Mine was not as dramatic. I had excessive tissue internally that was removed and a sinus passage straightened out. You wouldn’t see it looking at me but I could not breath through one side of my nose. Surgery corrected it and I stopped snoring altogether. My wife LOVED that part.
What I would caution people on is that messing with your sinuses could have an impact on how they drain. If you are subject to allergies the severity of this impact could be problematic. Drainage began to go directly into areas that became easily inflamed resulting in sinus migraines. I have been able to alleviate the issues through homeopathic immunotherapy. This through building up resistance to allergies via orally taken drops.
So while the surgery alleviated one issue it started another. I have a friend who is going through a similar experience so we’ll see how his path works out. I suspect he’ll need to do the same thing I did. My allergy immunotherapy regiment is $30 a month over the counter. So far as I can tell it’s been a 90% reduction in severity over 6 months.
I do not use Cpap or bipap any more but my heart goes out to anyone who needs to... Cheers!
Somnoplasty actually. Rhinoplasty is a cosmetic nose job.
