Female cpap users
DO YOU FIND USING A CPAP AND DATING DIFFICULT?
Re: Female cpap users
I don't get why gender would be an issue. Women are in the minority (among CPAP users), but I think that part of the reason is the gender stereotype for Sleep Apnea.
Regardless of gender, one should find it easier to date if one actually has the energy to date, instead of just going home and wanting to nod off the entire time.

Re: Female cpap users
I've never tried using my CPAP on dates.
Re: Female cpap users
Using a XPAP, not really difficult unless you make it so.
Dating, many times is difficult, again if you make it so.

Re: Female cpap users
I think the truth is that CPAP probably isn't sexy (unless you're dating a Star Wars fan, and you've painted your mask black), but neither is snoring and snorting all night long. I would sincerely hope whomever you're dating cares more about your health than any superficial discomfort s/he might feel about a medical device.

Re: Female cpap users
Does magellan6969 equate "dating" with promiscuity?
Fact check: the two are not interchangeable, just in case he is hoping they are . . .

Re: Female cpap users
I’m just waiting to read of an xPAP over, where everyone must be hooked up to a running machine.
Just hope the wiring is up to it if there are enough people to cover all the floors and furniture, and of course, hoses everywhere!
Then, Indiana Jones is mysteriously dropped into it and says “Snakes! Why did it have to be snakes?!”

Re: Female cpap users
There's a button, on your keyboard, called "caps lock"...
Use it!
Also, why the sexist question, do you just not care about male cpap users who're "dating", or are you just trying to stir up trouble???? (I'm betting the latter).
