Mild Sleep Apnea
I know I've mentioned some of this here already, but here's a little update. Caleb had a sleep study done back in December. We learned that he had "borderline severe obstructive sleep apnea", and his ENT recommended that Caleb have a tonsillectomy/adenoidectomy to help open up his airway. He had that procedure in March, and then Brad took him for a second sleep study in June. We had an appointment with the ENT yesterday and went over the results. His sleep apnea improved 2.5 times! While that's so good, he still has mild sleep apnea. Nothing needs to be done about it now, and we will do another sleep study in a year.
