The Fury π§π»βοΈπ₯
So it's been over 2 weeks since I got the #adenoidectomy surgery. It has literally changed my life. Before, I was always groggy with low energy, quick to anger with mood swings. I had pushed most of my family away with my outbursts and made things stressful for my wife.
After the surgery, my sleep quality has improved 1000%. The #sleepapnea my enlarged #adenoid was causing went away along with the anger and mood swings. I have so much more energy and am fully alert now. Before, I nodded off most of the day and would be exhausted halfway through the day regardless of what I did that day. I had constant brain fog as well. That's all gone now.
In a way, getting a #herniated disk in my neck saved me. My wonderful wife @polarisu recognized this when I thought I had back pain. I got the #MRI I needed to diagnose the condition, which also found the enlarged adenoid that was causing myself and everyone around me misery. She saved my life. Again (I had a precancerous mole removed years ago, thanks to her noticing and having me see a dermatologist).
This just goes to show how critical sleep is to your mental and physical health. If you think you have these symptoms, I urge you to speak with an #ENT. All it takes to find it is a quick endoscopy up your nose to see it.
