If you’ve followed me for any time, you know I’ve suffered from severe OSA for my whole life, although I didn’t realize it until about 10 years ago. I’ve been searching for a solution ever since my diagnosis.
I’ve tried CPAP, 3 types of oral appliances – all with no change in my AHI score or blood oxygen levels.
The Inspire hypoglossal nerve stimulator implant system is considered a ‘last resort’ for those patients who have moderate to severe OSA, are CPAP intolerant and meet certain other physical criteria.
I’m recording and sharing my experiences in the below videos as I go through this next phase of trying to overcome my sleep apnea. I hope my journey will be helpful to others who suffer from OSA or who are curious about the Inspire system.
I’m also going to post links to this page on the HealthyMouthMedia Facebook page so you can comment there if you wish (although I have to admit that I don’t check that page very often).
