I can totally sympathize with you. I received my machine one week ago. I feel like I haven't slept for a week. Follow up with sleep Dr tomorrow. I sit up at nights with the mask on and just want to cry cause I just can't get comfortable with it. Sleeping was my favorite activity and now its just no ...

tired

My CPAP was delivered 11/22/06. I have been using it faithfully every night. I have no problems breathing with it but the darn thing just won't stay in place. When I lay down it slides up the back of my head whenever I move around. I am waking up at least every hour adjusting, etc. I am still as tir...

I had my first sleep study on November 16th. I stayed up later then usual the night before so I was good and ready for sleep. Brought a book to read but didn't even open it. Was asleep in 25 minutes. My levels also went very low and mask was put on around midnight. Don't worry about it. Its a breeze!

Night 3 brought an all out war between me and the mask. No matter what I did, I could not get comfortable. Darn thing keeps sliding up on my head due to my hair. I am ready to shave my head. I have read many references to Pantyhose trick, but i have searched and cannot figure out what it is? HELP! I...

Newbie

Happy Holidaze!
My equipment arrived Wednesday. I have been able to keep it on all night (11-7) but find the mask keeps sliding upward because of my hair. Is this a good type of mask? Should I ask for something else? Any hints would be appreciated.

Thanks for all the responses! I have an appt with the doctor on Friday and she is going to go over all the details with me. My machine is being delivered later that day. When I get the specifics I will post them. I am looking forward to finally feeling rested when I wake up instead of exhausted!!
