I'm 24 years old now, but was diagnosed at 17 years old.

And this thread is almost as old as you are. Jim

I've been having the OSA headaches since I was 19 years old. The titration was the first time in 10 years I ever woke up without an OSA headache. But unfortunately since it was only a few hours of sleep, I had to go home later and sleep and as you can guess, had the headache after I slept with no mask.

All after you were given a machine and mask! Can anyone here see the problem. jim

One of my grandkids asked me how old I was... told him "Older than dirt".. answer..... "Geez, Gram you had better go take a bath"
Cheers one and all that are "Older than dirt"

I've wondered about the poll - is it measuring only computer-savvy people? I ask because... according to the poll there is a relatively small # of people in their 70's using Cpap, and is that about computer usage, or are we all prematurely dead? Worries me! And I feel alone.

77 and still kickin' Fell like 65 since I got my machine. One draw back sinuses don't like the moisture. When I turn it down throat get sore. Any ideas?

Could be a little of both reasons, or maybe in old age, we lose our abilities to mask up, or don't care anymore if we continue, many times people fall thru the cracks. Or maybe POLL'S are just useless. Jim

Yup, that's it Jim, (the red part)....... polls are a monumental waste of time..., and yes, I'm over 70

Julie, people over 70 just can't be bothered answering polls, we have better things to do.

Apparently, you don't.

POLL'S are useless, as our most Guests. But thanks to this brilliant Poll, I now can see how old I am if I forget. Jim

We old folks are decadent enough, most of us don't do well with change. Jim
