I'm mouth taping and I don't care for it either but I'm getting used to it. As long as I don't rip skin off in the morning I'm good!

For side sleeping I've been having good luck with the Comfort Classic nasal mask. It's been nice to get back on my side again...I was sleeping more on my back with the Mirage Swift II.

Geeze it's articles like that that make me really glad I got the diagnosis and the treatment. It's scary to think I could have gone on god knows how long with OSA and the consequences.

I'm sure you're FAR MORE wrinkled than I am, Sheba. But then, that's what I like about you. I can be your friend without having to get into the pool myself. LOL, B. Well, I have to admit, there are probably times I've been in that pool a little too long. Just as long as none of us stay in there. LO...

BTW, has the wife tried cpap? Nope! She hasn't yet experienced the joys, though I have encouraged her to get a sleep study done. She doesn't snore like I did, but I have woke up several times and shook her because she appeared to stop breathing. Though I admit to poking my toes in the weirdness now...
