had my ascending aorta replaced on jan 4 of this year. my wife has commented that since surgery my snoring has been GREATLY reduced -- to almost none. before that she said it had gotten very bad, and i've been teased by buddies from golf trips that i keep them awake in adjacent rooms. she thought at first it might be the pain meds, but i've been off them for 6-8 weeks. she thought it might be being propped up on all my pillows to sleep upright, but i've been sleeping flat now for at least 3 weeks. has anyone else noticed a change in snoring after replacement of big aneurysms (i was 5.8 cm at CT a month before surgery). i'm thinking maybe having an aorta the size of a coke can was restricting my breathing, but i certainly never noticed any problems breathing, nor do i feel i breath better now. any ideas -- joe
