Good news for a change

No prayer request here!

After a year of trying I finally got my CPAP machine for sleep apnea. After just three days I can tell a pretty big damn difference. I can't tell you the last time I felt this good and had this much energy!!!

Hopefully I'll be a new man altogether once I get my surgery, hearing aid, glasses and completely caught up on sleep! :cheers2:

All this in time for my 34th B-day at the end of the month.

cpap saved me. got my energy level up. which resulted in me working out more. Now I dont need the machine all the time and dont get tired during the day. I breathing was stopping 100 times an hour.

Way to keep the spirits up, JOAT. Good to see things turning in your favor.

how did you guys know you needed one of these? like, were you waking yourself up in the middle of the night because you couldn't breath etc?

I'm always fricken tired and a very restless sleeper, but I don't think it's a breathing thing?

Sure it's not cause the wife stuffed something in your mouth while you sleep or your throat gets bent up wrong cause your big head is hanging off the bed? :biggrin:

Didn't realize so many people were plagued with sleep apnea.

Sleep apnea is as common as diabetes.

I felt like crap all the time, knew my energy was no where near what it once was and my wife said my snoring was terrible.

I stopped breathing 114 times in 4 hours the night I went to get tested. I'm on a full mask with 14 cm of air, which went up from 11 last March.

I'm not used to the mask yet and last night was a pain, but I still feel a definite difference.
