I had surgery on my sinuses to correct sleep apnea. I felt much better at first but soon i started feeling tired all over again. My doctor says that can sometimes happen – that the surgery is sucessfull at first but then it becomes obvious that it didnt solve the problem. Now i will have to wear one of thosse CPAP machines, and also my doctor thinks that i also have a circadian rythm disorder – so i have 2 sleep disorders. Ack!

My mom has that. She used to wear a weird machine thing. Sleep apnea is quite dangerous. According to some articles it can cause you to stop breathing. I think you should follow your doc and look for other docs too.
you certainly may have 2 sleep disorders. You may need a follow up sleep study from the surgery. Surgery has limited cure on sleep apnea. Often the scar tissue is worse than the orginal problem. CPAP has done wonders for me.
My uncle’s OSA is way wore since surgery secondary to the scar tissue.
