So look up the inspire system.

There is a big long thread on it by badass.

Any news about being cpap free is great for many people. I wouldn't wear one no matter what. I've seen them and slept in a room with one when I was on a cruise with my sister-in-law.

I don't see why stillanon cares that you posted this. I think it is great that you gave others the news.

I sat in on a presentation on sleep apnea at a health fair. The doctor doing the presentation seemed to dwell on the cause was the loss of muscle tone due to aging. The muscles in the neck and throat weakened allowed the airways to close.

In the q/a portion, I asked if there exercises that would tone those muscles, the doctor looked at me paused for several seconds, turned to someone else and took their question.

yeah, tumwater, that's what I heard too. Doctors aren't God, each one can only know so much. BUT-----here's what I think:

singing would tone those muscles, I'll bet. Singing is fun, so why not try it?

From what I've been reading lately, including a book called "Younger Next Year," our bodies are designed to repair themselves for a long, long time. IF we take care of them: number one thing being to exercise them, move---and yes, sing!! Next is, eat well. What that means exactly is changing lately, but the news is basically the same: the "diseases of aging" are often self-inflicted, often through not-knowing and what we expect.

So yay for any sharing of helpful information among each other.

I intend to lives forever, or die happy, whichever comes first, yes, exercise is crucial both.

Thanks, Anon 3! These tips are wonderful for so many of us!

Thank you for your kind comments. Im sorry. I wasnt trying to advertize,i was only trying to give an option because I found one and was so excited! Theanesthesiologist caught me last surgery. Without the Cpap, the nurses and everyone has to watch you closely, so some will refuse to do surgery without cpap.
