When can I use cpap after jaw surgery - accetableplaintain - 10-17-2023

hey everyone,
I had double jaw surgery 3.5 months ago for my OSA. It helped but I'm still feeling tired and having memory issues so i suspect its not cured. I have a sleep study at the 6 month mark, but i was wondering when I would be okay to try cpap again? Would 3.5 months be too soon? I dont want to increase the chance of relapse or mess something up, so I'm not sure if i need to wait at the 6 month mark or if I can start now at the 3.5 month mark.
Would love to hear if anyone has any experience with this.
thank you

Give the Surgeon's office a call and ask when they say it is ok to start using cpap again.
