Age Range 60-75+

Got Inspire on March 1, 2020

I was diagnosed with sleep apnea in 2019 and was fitted for a CPAP mask. I used it for maybe 6 months and it did not work for me. Many nights I found myself taking it off before night ended, it felt like someone trying to smother me.

Interests:  Fishing, bowling, and working out 5 days a week.

Why I chose Inspire therapy to treat my sleep apnea:  I researched other treatment options and found Inspire as the only treatment that worked inside the body and was approved by FDA for treatment for this condition.

In a few short words, I would describe Inspire therapy as:  Inspire was a Godsend treatment. I was very frustrated with the CPAP and the Inspire procedure was easy. I had done lots of research on Inspire, heard from people who had Inspire, and that sold me.

Why am I a patient ambassador?  I wanted to be an ambassador to help get the word out to friends, minority communities, and even some of my own health care providers.
