Hi all... I just wanted to update how i feel now that I am beginning my thrid week. I have had some ups and downs but it mainly due to mask leaks. I am starting to get used to this thing attached to my face for the most part. I have noticed a couple of things recently...
** stopped taking my provigil. Still tired but can get through the day right now without it.
** My GERD has all but fanished!!! Knock on wood hopefully it does not return
** I have been feeling light headed and dizzy. I checked my blood pressre and it was much lower than what I usually had. It was 128/85. It is usually in the upper 130-40's/upper 90's. Could this be why I feel light headed and dizzy?

I am still moody. But I hope I get better as my body adjust more. Still have not slept through the night but last night was the easiest and only had a couple of leaks. I started to make sure my face is well shaven and wash it well each night. WE will see how this works.

Thanks for all the help... Keep putting out the great advice!

Hang in there Rockside,

Glad you are adjusting. The moodiness takes awhile, it took a long time to get so out of it, it takes awhle to reverse. I think it was about three months before I realized that I was not going through the mood swings. I have gotton better since. Most I talk to say the same, all of a sudden they realize it.

Mood swings.
They go away? God, I hope so.

It's been five months for me, and these mood swings have got me so all turned around that I sometimes don't know if I'm coming or going. I'm getting a sense of what manic-depressives must go through. I hate it, at least the not-so-nice moods. This weekend was one of those rollercoaster mood swings. High as a kite on Friday, a little up and down over the weekend, then one word from a person, and my mood has plummeted. It irks me because ordinarily I let such incidents go by in a reasonable mood. Please keep telling me these moods will go away!

Linda, in a mood

Hahaha, is the Pap-caused mood swings what makes a few of you go at each other once in a blue moon? Stands to reason. I guess I'll find out before long, when I start my treatment.
If I come back on and act like a she-bear, forgive me. I'll just be having a PMS attack. Pap-Moody-Spell.

Haha!

Well, I'm pretty sure it's not PMS. Since I have these mood swings fairly frequently most any time of the day or month, if it was the PMS, I'd have far MORE to worry about than just sleep apnea recovery! Ha!
