I snored so damned hard last night
my uvula swelled up to (I’m estimating here) 3x it’s normal diameter. i was a bit concerned about suffocating on it, actually.

That is likely called “obstructive sleep apnea”.There is a great deal of information available on the subject.
What she said. You need to get that checked out, please.
I’ve been through the whole ordeal, cpap titration, etc. No way will I ever go through that again.
I third that one. I know someone who actually had to get a uvulaectomy because it kept growing. And if it’s disturbing your sleep, it’s worth a trip to the doc just to maybe sleep the night through.
Oops. Didn’t see your response. BUt this might be something a little different.
Oh, I know the drill, I really do. I could as easily have slept with live scorpions taped to my eyelids. Cpap didn’t improve my sleep, it denied me sleep.
There are a lot of “oral appliances” now available that I will be exploring soon.

Clip and cough, Og. :)
Are you sure it wasn’t angioedema? That put me in the E. D. a couple of weeks ago from a reaction to some kind of antibiotic. Is there anything new in your regimen?

Yeah, I’ve had this before. Hard snoring in a dry room does it every time
