My daughter's having a T&A done today, what should i expect? (tonsils and adenoids)?

My daughter was diagnosed with sleep apnea so she was scheduled for T&A surgery today . She's 4 years old.

I understand exactly what you are going through. My son has the same condition and he is 3. He snores like an old man. While he's sleeping he will stop breathing and will choke. He is scheduled for his surgery on 5/21/07.

From my research, I have found that it is rather routine and his ENT informed me that the surgery will take a total of 10 minutes. I hope everything turns out fine for your daughter...God Bless.

I hope everything went fine with the surgery...if she was snoring like my son is, maybe now you all can get some sleep. Report It

go to doctor
