From what I understand this is a new therapy for those of us that suffer from OSA. I have heard it described as a pacemaker for your tongue meaning that when the respiratory sensor senses that you aren't breathing it stimulates the nerves that cause the tongue to stick out, thus removing the obstruction and allowing you to breathe again.

So my point is, has anyone had this device implanted or know someone that has? I feel as though I am out of options after using CPAP and having the UPPP surgery.

Any help would be great.

Thanks, Jeremy

I have always liked the didgeridoo so I bought one a few months back. I have noticed that when I get the time to play, my apnea is less common and I feel more rested the next day. I think that it strengthens the muscles in the soft palate therefore creating less of an obstruction at night
