Hello @jonjacobjingleheimerschidt, and welcome to Connect. I did some of my own digging about Inspire Upper Airway Stimulation treatment. It would appear that upper airway stimulation is approved for people with moderate to severe obstructive sleep apnea who can't tolerate CPAP or BiPAP. Is it safe toe assume you have obstructive sleep apnea?
While we can't endorse any product, you may find this information from MayoClinic.org on treatment options for obstructive sleep apnea useful, http://mayocl.in/2rzGCvq. You may notice there is a portion on that page under surgical options that discusses upper airway stimulation treatments. As always, it would be best to present your questions to your sleep doctor, especially since the implantation of this device requires surgery and calibrating.
I would also like to invite @vickiw, @beatricefay, @patreats5674, @upnorthnancy, @hosta, as they all have sleep apnea and have discussed having some issues with their CPAP machines and masks. Have any of you heard of, or discussed with your physician, an upper airway stimulator?
I have not heard of the inspire upper airway stimulation treatment. I did get a new mask and it has helped for a while, now I am starting to have air leaks again. So discouraging. I have both obstructive and central sleep apnea. I am on a BIPAP machine.
