Do we have anyone who uses one? Please tell me you get used to it!! Last night was my first time using it and I have to say it was the WORST nights sleep I have ever had.
You can’t even hear my machine. I have to use it because sleep apnea triggers my atrial fibrillation.We used to travel with another couple and they always wanted to stay in the same motel room; I think they wanted to save money. We did it that way a couple of times, but eventually, we just couldn't. The CPAP made a horrible noise. And when she didn't use it, she snored terribly (which was why she needed the CPAP). A absolutely wonderful couple and she couldn't help that she snored. But we simply couldn't sleep.
My doctor wants me to have a sleep test because Inow snore...so does Rick. I won't do it because I won't wear the CPAP anyway. I don't want to deal with wearing one or cleaning one. Doctor thinks that could be some of what's causing my headaches.
There's a new kind of CPAP with no mask. I don't know much about it.
I agree, I was frustrated to the high Heavens. I actually had to take a short term leave from work to adjust to being able to sleep with it for a couple of months because the first breakin period was so miserable for me, but using it really does change your energy levels, short term pain, long term gain. For all that need it, please stick with it, you'll get there!!My husband has used one for about 15 years now. It took him a couple months to get used to it. Most nights the first few weeks, it wound up being taken off and thrown on the floor. But when he realized he felt better with it, he learned.
Mine is over the nose. Other kinds I found to be uncomfortable. If it dries out your mouth like mine,put water in except then it makes it hard to breathDo we have anyone who uses one?

I have a few of those too.Every time I read the thread title I think it says CRAP machine. I think, yea, I've got 3 of those.
