I really want that machine. It worked so well for me when I had it for 5 days, I just felt so good each day I awoke, but I cannot afford the copay. So I'm taking my Resmed Vpap III and let them change it to the new pressure numbers.

2007 Sleep Study

I had my last sleep study on Feb.2, 2007. My pressure is now 25/20, it was lower. I feel like I'm in a loosing battle with sleep apnea. I thought that I would improve but I'm getting worse. I don't know what more I can do to improve my situation. The higher pressure is almost unbearble.
