    Has anyone have this procedure done, I have an appointment with the ENT coming up to see if this is something that might make breathing through the nose a little easier. I watched a few videos on the procedure and seems like it could help. I was curious to know if you had it done how has it helped you and if you had and tips or thoughts about it. I also think turbinate reduction might be needed also.

    I haven’t had the procedure myself but know something about it. It has a high success rate and it’s very safe procedure. There is no anesthesia involved. If it doesn’t work then you can have other surgical procedures done. There are a number of cases where it doesn’t resolve the problem completely. You have nothing to lose by trying the procedure other than the cost that your insurance may not cover.
