I just want to say good luck. I just started using my APAP and the first night was horrible because I wasnt used to it, the 2nd night a little better, and the 3rd night, I slept like a baby and wouldnt give it up for all the money in the world. Just stick with it and I hope it works for you the firs...

I just wanted to send a quick thank you to everyone who has taken the time to post questions and answers on this board. When this whole sleep apnea process started for me, I was so unsure of what to expect but by reading other peoples posts and posting some of my own questions, and sometimes just co...

Equipment :
Machine: Respronices Remstar Auto pressure settings 4-14
Mask: Respronics Comfort Full 2

No humidifier
No mention of C Flex (is this even labeled on the machine?)

Moogie: When I say I can't breath through my nose I mean I can't. Been that way my whole life even during the day. I can take a breath or two, but its the equivilent of holding my breath and I have to breath through my nose again to "catch my breath". PRetty sure I'd shrivel up and suffocate if I ta...

HI all, I just got my new APAP after recently finding out I do have sleep apnea. I was so excited to bring it home and try it out I didnt want to wait a week until they could deliver it so I went to their office and picked it up myself. I tried on several masks and decided on the Comfort Full 2. I h...

Bll: I have no idea when I get the APAP but hopefully soon. I am anxious to find out if it is going to help since I have read completely mixed results on the subject. Is the APAP the one that records results or is that only a specific model of the APAP? I would be interested in finding out what my R...

DA DA DA! Please welcome the newest member of the sleep apnea club! Okay, i know thats a bit over the top, but after not sleeping at the sleep lab I had given up. Got my results today. I have OSA and something called hypnogogic hallucinations (what on earth is that?) My DME is delivering the CPAP wi...

Thank you Bill for that link, it was oh so helpful. How insulted would my Dr. be if I emailed it to her!! (Actually, she has been great so far). Guest- I dont think my meds affected my sleep study. Its a prett simple med for high blood pressure. Which at 27 and being in fairly good shape in spite of...

Thanks for all your input. I guess I just wanted answers so bad I'm driving myself crazy before I get any. I'll keep you updated and thanks again. I guess I just need a voice of reason from someone who has been there. Hmph, I knew I wasnt crazy

Im bummed. I had my sleep test last night and even though on any given night it takes me milliseconds to fall asleep, I couldnt sleep. At 2 am I finally took some tylenol sleep aid and fell asleep for about 2.5 hours but so lightly. When I woke up (on my own) at 5 am, the sleep tech said I didnt eve...

THanks bunches everyone! I am nervous and not sure why but in about 30 minutes I am out the door and on my way to the sleep lab. Guess I just have to relax and see what happens. Ill let you know what happens. Im sure by tomorrow Ill have a million questions about tonight anyway....

Hi everyone. I have been sitting quietly in the background for some time now reading posts but have not found an answer to one question. If the sleep lab is going to place a sensor under my nose to test for apneas, and I cant breath through my nose (havent been able to EVER at any point in my life) ...
