"SO NO MORE OPTIONS THERE. HE TRIED FOR A YEAR AND IT AIN'T HAPPENING."

Was kind of a give away towards not asking for help... but I suppose I could have suggested what you did... be interesting to see if she comes back.

You might want to have your son register for the forum and start his own thread about the problems he is having with cpap. Knowledgeable people can help him troubleshoot the issues.

Sorry your post was referred to as pointless because going without treatment for sleep apnea is a serious matter. Obviously, you have great concerns about your son because otherwise you wouldn't have posted.

Based on all the information you've supplied for us to ponder, his problem and solutions are very obvious.
So glad we could help.

It sounds like sleep apnea takes second place to drug dependence/abuse and RAGE.
Way past the tipping point.

We have no idea how old the "son" is.
Depending on how you read the post, it could actually be a "parental problem"........

You are right, I should have called you out directly on it instead of apologizing in the way I did.

But how do you know the rant wasn't a cry for help? Why not give someone the benefit of the doubt even if you may be right?

49er... you should know better. Not enough people on this forum stop to consider if indeed it is a cry for help, and few give a person the benefit of the doubt.
