“A life saver for me!”
I received my Inspire in February, 2022. Ever since that time, I am able to sleep soundly - REM sleep and the associated cognitive benefits are the most obvious improvements. However, with no more snoring and no more mask and hoses, I can cuddle with my wife and travel without extra baggage.
Inspire saved my life, I get more work done at the office, no longer need naps throughout the day and I even have dreams!
Interests:
Traveling, which is much easier with Inspire now. Bike riding, golf and spending time with the grandkids.
Why I chose Inspire therapy to treat my sleep apnea:
I live in Oklahoma - seasonal allergies and sinus issues are a part of life for everyone here. The inability to breath clearly every night interfered with wearing a CPAP mask to such an extent I probably only wore it through the night two or three times a year. I was tired of being tired. Inspire works despite allergies or sinuses. Inspire just works. With Inspire I am freed from the "equipment" that comes with a CPAP mask.
Why am I a patient ambassador?
Inspire saved my life. My AHI was 46 - with Inspire it is 0.4! I am so much more productive at work, I am pleasant in the mornings, and I don't fall asleep during the day. I needed to share this with everyone that suffered the way I did. Inspire is an easy solution to sleep apnea that worked for me. If I can help someone else find relief the way I did, I would be happy to assist them in that journey.
