Anyone in Sweden that has been able to diagnose or treat UARS. Most of The doctors and dentists in this country are incompetent; rude and negligent. I have "no sleep apnea" according to a sleep study but I snore a lot. I have symptoms indicative of UARS but these fuckers don't acknowledge that in Sweden.

I have a blocked nose so I am breathing through my mouth. I have intense neck and shoulder tension and pain and soreness around my TMJ muscles. A dental biteguard is fucking useless for me.

I have unrefreshing sleep. How the fuck do I treat this shit in Sweden. I have a background in medical sciences so it pisses me off even more when these arrogant bastards in the so called "healthcare" wont help me. They are so incompetent is laughable.

If I had the money I would go abroad for treatment

Hi guys, just wondering if I need any adjustments on my cpap machine. I have resumed 10 auto plus F20 full face mask.

I was diagnosed with around 14 ahi in all apneas two months ago.

I am such a light sleeper, with constant tossing and turning over the years and will wake even if a pin hit the floor. I am hoping this will subside if I carry on with cpap.

I do feel like I am sleeping a bit better in general but still do not feel any positive effects yet.

Hello, I’m considering getting FME through Dr. Newaz. I’ve been a chronic mouth breather since I was kid because I have a narrow, high arched palate.

I’ve searched and searched to see if anyone with upper palate expansions have experienced improvement in their sleep and I’ve struggled to find cases. It seems like overall people are happy with the improvement in their nasal breathing but I haven’t seen much in the procedure reducing awakenings, etc. Maybe they’re out there but I’m not searching effectively? I know it’s not a cure, but part of a multi-faceted approach to improving sleep.

If you’ve undergone palate expansions, has it improvement your sleep significantly? Has it improved your CPAP compliance?

I have a narrow airway (60 mm at narrowest), upper palate, fairly restricted tongue; avg 20 arousals/hour sleep; mild to moderate fatigue (among other symptoms). My ortho has me wearing a decompression splint for a few mos to release facial tension/compensation and align bite before MARPE and tongue release.

1. Curious for any experiences/thoughts on use of decompression splint before expansion.
2. I feel like my fatigue has gotten worse especially in the past few days (now on day 20 of the splint). Has anyone experienced that with a splint? Is it possible that by pushing my jaw down and back (preventing compensating tension, which would keep airway a bit more open) that it's aggravating my fatigue in the short-term?

Many thanks for any thoughts.

Does anyone have the full paper that includes the flow limitation graphic and table showing the different classes?
