Hi Everyone, My doctor says I am a good candidate for the Inspire Implant. For reference, I'm a 55 yo female, 125# & physically fit; severe apnea, constantly exhausted, headaches, dry mouth, periodontis, TMJ. Oral devices make me gag. Tried & tried ResMed CPAP & pillows; still gagging & gasping. The implant sounds great, but it is a more or less permanent surgical procedure, so I'm doing my due diligence. I've perused old forum posts on the topic and most of the more detailed posts are 2-3 years old, so I'm looking for more recent feedback. And yes, I'm aware of the product Ambassador reviews; I guess I'm looking for more feedback on the nonaffiliated, average patient experience. Are there any particular considerations I should think about before doing this? Any adjustment issues or complications I should be aware of? What about scarring? Should I be worried that this procedure prohibits future use of MRI procedures? Thank you so much for your time!
