[Harp-L] Re: Tonsils



Joe -

In order to solve my sleep apnea problem,  I had my tonsils and my uvula removed about 6 years ago.  I think it definitely affected my tone, mostly for the better, it got bigger and deeper.  However, I lost the ability to do those âSugar Blueâ growls on the draw notes.  I read somewhere that they are done by manipulating your uvula, any suggestions on how to do them in a different way? BTW, the sleep apnea was gone the day after the operation.
