Re: dreams

My experience is just the opposite. I wasn't really having many dreams before CPAP. Since I started, it's almost nightly.

Re: Snoring vs CPAP noise?

My machine is very quiet. Just a very faint whine as I breathe. My snoring prior to getting into CPAP was loud enough that my wife kept earplugs by the bed for bad nights. She's very happy now, as the snoring is gone (if I tried to quit the silly thing, she might duct tape it to my face). It is a bi...

The one you're referring to is apparently a test for narcolepsy, where the idea is to try to nap. For the FAA, the protocol is similar, but you're actually trying to stay awake du...

Re: Newbie would like to hear success stories, please.

Well, I just started. I hadn't really been experiencing any problems, but I've snored for years ( every guy in my family seems to do that).
