I feel your pain. Once you know their is a problem it's difficult to tolerate while waiting for the solution. My diagnosis and titration took ages and the waitress awful. Hope your machine arrives and your adjustment to treatment is a smooth journey. Don't give up if it's not, in my experience most problems can be addressed and someone on here will know how to help you.

I already had an S9 escape but returned it to the doctor and ordered an autoset as recommended on here. I had the device for a week and was feeling better everyday
Now I have one night without it. It will be a long night.

I keep checking the shipping data every 30 minutes. Its left OH and on its way to NC, should be here tomorrow. I paid the $72 to get it here 2 days earlier.
I just could not wait an extra 2 days.

We get bad over along period of time, so we don't realize how bad we are. Once we know what it feels like to have a good night, those bad nights that seemed normal feel a lot worse.

Who would have thought it would be this challenging to sleep and breathe at the same time?
