I was told I NEEDED one by a small town do anything for money hospital. It did me no good as Id wake up with the dumb hose wrapped around my neck. Advil PM works much better for me.

Best thing I have ever done. Little bit getting used to but no more wake ups with heart pounding. Over 12 years using mine!
I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

Was told I have to use a bi pap machine as mine was severe. Think I got up 90 times an hour, since I got the machine I dropped some weight and my numbers got better but still need the machine. I got central sleep apnea and obstruction sleep apnea. The later is almost non existent now with the weight lose.
Watch out guys as there are a bunch of sleep machines going to be recalled for some kind of foam in them that causes problems to your body. Mine was recalled and have yet to get a new machine or mine repaired.

I have used a bi pap for about 5 years or so. I working great for me. I use a much smaller pillow the last few months and it help a great deal keeping the mask sealed. I use a 12 by 12 pillow.

Have used one for about 5 years now.
Probably saved my life.
No dreams or REM sleep for 20 years.
Tired all the time, and falling asleep at work.
Much better now with good sleep.
I have a Bi-pap.
Get one and stick with it, you won't be sorry.

I am the poster boy for C-Pap machines. I have had one 34 years. One of the first people to have one. I honestly can say I could not take a million dollars for mine. Cannot sleep with out it. It will take you 6 weeks to get use to the machine. DO NOT GIVE up on the machine. MartyD

My Mom was told to go on one so she did. Her health severely declined from day one and died of a lung issues less than a year later at 54 years old. Could have been a total coincidence or maybe something in the filter or machine itself ( think many are refurbished) Will never know I guess but I'll never get one.
