How long until you feel results

Post by MUGSY119 » Tue Jan 14, 2020 10:46 am

Good morning

I'm so happy to see this message board! I've been using my CPAP around 50 days and still don't feel this great change that I keep hearing about. How long did it take for users to feel the difference? Thank you!

welcome to the zoo!

this varies from person to person. there is no one set time period. and usually, you will start to "feel better" gradually.

i've never been one for springing out of bed in the morning with a smile on my lips and a song in my heart. and that didn't change with cpap and treated apnea.

it may well be that your machine isn't set up correctly to give you the optimum therapy.

how about you tell us which machine and mask you are using? different folk use different machines and masks and even different combos of the two.

please see the link in my sig for newbies. this will help you help us.

hang in there. you can do this.

good luck!
