Yet another alternative to breathing machines and masks

Not sure I would go this far, but I'm speaking only for myself!

I have been interested in this.  Will have to follow for a while to see how it does.

This procedure is being done at my sleep center.  I'll ask next time I see my sleep doctor how it's going.  I already have one implantable device/battery. It cost $138,000 and my last battery cost $127,000.  I am convinced these things work, but I imagine they're very expensive. 

Is your implantable device working?   Mine cost a little over 6 Grand each time…insurance pays him a little over 3 grand and I pay nothing. So it is just cost of hotel/drive and my time.  If my procedure does not work I will keep on looking!
