Alaxo Hybrid Stent with CPAP - Therapy Thread

[yrnkrn]

Last night I slept with the Back2Sleep Large stent and bilevel 5.2/8.4, Dreamwear Gel Pillows. The stent is annoying but manageable. Without the nasal pillows it would be somewhat easier as the pillow press upon the stent holding clip.
I am trying to solve expiratory palatal prolapse and it seems the stent is helping, see the last images here where the palatal obstruction seems to be partially mitigated by the stent tube.
Depending where the collapse is, it is possible the stent could completely replace my CPAP. 
That would be interesting although the CPAP is less invasive than the stent. Or maybe because I'm more used to the CPAP.

I switched to a nasal cushion to avoid this issue.

 This was my hope, but it turned out to be false. 

I am happy for your progress!
