sounds like something you should TALK TO YOUR DOCTOR about.

or move to oregon, preferably somewhere they don't have internet.

I am the opposite of you I had NO problems with wearing the mask and sleeping with the machine. I love what this therapy has done for me the last 2+ years. I was miserable before and now when I look back at it I honestly don't think I could have gone on for much longer. I most likely would be "pushing up the daisy's" today no doubt in my mind.

Please think twice before you quit.


I wish you well...
I agree Bill. I've said before if they found a cure for SA I'd keep using my machine but at the lowest pressure. I put my mask on and within minutes I am sleeping like a baby! Sometimes I wish we didn't need a hose but the rest is comforting for me!

Why don't you just TRY it. All by yourself. Without us holding your hands. And then come back and report on what happened.

Enchanter,
Do your own research.
Make your own decisions.
Grow up.
If you refuse to grow up, ask your mother.

On more than one front. First bringing it up and two the obvious response which is not a surprise. This will go on for a while now since someone gave him something else to think about.

Was bad enough the post that said...

Like that is going to happen any time in the next couple months (using past history as a guide)....

Pretty unreal.

Oh man.... Not good news.

Well I guess I'm out of luck then. I'm gonna do some research on meditation but I've tried it many times and have always failed.
