Posts about my experience with the Vivos mRNA appliance.
CPAP pressure remains pretty stable, and hasn’t changed much in the last 6 months. This isn’t particularly good news. My compliance remains excellent, but I think the facemask is giving me headaches so I’m going to take a break from it for a while.

It’s been a full year since I started using my Vivos mRNA Appliance in the hope of permanently curing my severe sleep apnea. This month’s CPAP data showed only a very slight decline in my CPAP peak pressure, probably because despite my best efforts I haven’t actually been expanding the appliance at all this month!

I’ve been using my Vivos mRNA Appliance for eleven months now, so in theory I’m nearly half-way through my treatment… although I did notice treatments as long as 35 months in Vivos’s most recent real-world data submission to the FDA, so perhaps I’m only a third of the way there. Nevertheless, it’s all good news this month: my AHI continues to drop, as does my CPAP pressure trend, I’m exercising more, and my health continues to improve.

Another month has gone by, so here’s another update. My health and fitness continue to improve, but the CPAP pressure trend has gone backwards this month and I noticed something weird about my expansion measurements.

Well the months are flying by at a glacial speed, so here’s another update. This month’s CPAP pressure trend continues to show a very slight downwards slope. I’m heading in the right direction and things seem to be on track.

I’ve been wearing my Vivos mRNA Appliance for eight months now. The CPAP pressure trend continued to decline very gradually this month, suggesting that expansion is slowly improving my airway. I feel less sleepy during the day, particularly in the afternoons, but this is still probably mostly due to adapting to CPAP therapy at this point.

You know the drill by now; it’s been seven months since I started wearing my Vivos mRNA Appliance in the hope of curing my severe obstructive sleep apnea, so it’s time for another regular monthly update.

It’s been six months since I started wearing my Vivos mRNA Appliance, so it’s time for another update. The summary is that there doesn’t seem to be any impact on my CPAP pressure yet but my AHI is steadily dropping. I feel a bit less fatigued and don’t often feel sleepy during the day now, but I wouldn’t say I feel great yet. This treatment takes a long time.

I recently borrowed and read my DNA Appliance provider’s copy of Epigenetic Orthodontics in Adults… and kind of wish I hadn’t. I think I understand now why Dr Singh hasn’t made it more widely available: In short, the book is poorly written, and having been published in 2008 is already quite outdated.

OK folks here it is… my long-await five month Vivos mRNA Appliance update. (more…)
