Re: Leakage and Pressure Level adjustment

Re: New spray offers hope for people with common sleep condition
Check it. It's the other way around. The study was restricted to those who do not breathe through the mouth. It could be poorly absorbed in those who mouth-breathe.vandownbytheriver wrote: ↑Mon Apr 15, 2024 2:12 pmNote that the improvement was only noted in those not restricted to nasal breathing... what's up with that?

Re: My personal experience with Inspire for Sleep Apneas
I read general anesthesia isn’t recommended with sleep apnea. It's common to use general anesthesia on people with sleep apnea. The anesthesiologist should be made aware, and she will make sure you breathe steadily. That's a big part of their job with every patient. Anesthesiologists are often the ...

Re: Caldera Re-leaf neck support
Anyone use the Caldera Releaf neck support for sleeping ? Don't get it. Too complicated. Costs too much. A bit gimmicky. Just get a cheap, generic foam cervical collar such as https://www.amazon.com/OTC-Cervical-Collar-Support-Medium/dp/B000JNRLCI I have worn one every night for years. Works with a...

Re: My personal experience with Inspire for Sleep Apneas
The device has been in use since 2014. I would have thought by 2020 the surgeons would have mastered their techniques. Sounds like your surgeon was new to the procedure.

Re: Very O.T, but... the sun
I’m so happy that I’m not a bug
Waiting seventeen years for a hug
And the sex that comes after
It leads straight to disaster!
Not to mention shoes smooshing my mug
