I had the tongue advancement and UPPP in 2004, which didn't
work. My insurance only covers one machine every 5 years, I'm not
sure I could afford $2500 dollars for a new one (not totally sure
that's the price, but for some reason I remember that number).
Maybe if we can't find a workable solution, I can think about buying
a bi-pap. I'm still wondering if that would reduce the air enough to
relieve the air coming in - I would hope so!
