It's so easy to turn it on and off. Getting up in the middle of the night I don't have to disconnect from a machine. I only stopped breathing once during my sleep study after activating Inspire. My wife and I both get better sleep now.

I've had Inspire Sleep since February 2023. My wife talked about my snoring and that I would stop breathing at times when sleeping/napping. She would even wake me up because of my breathing. She convinced me to get a sleep study. The study showed I stopped breathing 48 times in an hour. I tried a CPAP machine for about 8 months. The best night sleep I got with the machine was 4 hours. I saw my ENT Doctor and he recommended Inspire.

Interests:

Reading, working out, traveling and watching my grandchildren competing in sports.

Why I chose Inspire therapy to treat my sleep apnea:

My CPAP machine left me to feel tired often. All the research I did and the information from my doctor convinced me Inspire was the way to go. Traveling is much easier with Inspire versus carrying a CPAP.

Why am I a patient ambassador?

Being retired I have the time to talk to people. I want to help other people with sleep apnea find a better way to sleep. I am more rested when I wake and ready to complete chores. I want to see people who lag from poor sleep find a way to better energy.
