I had a sleep study done back in 8/09 and showed I needed a cpap. Had Apnea real bad, slept very little at night. 10 days later I had a slight heart attack and a 5 way by pass at age 51. Had a lot of stress and overweight some. After surgery I lost 40# and was feeling pretty good. Heart DR. highly advised I get on the CPAP. I tried a full face mask and it was a fight for 6 months. Finally I just quit using it. I changed jobs and got rid of all my stress in 9/11. About two years ago I had to renew my CDL and DR would not renew it because I was not using the CPAP as ordered by heart DR. Tried the CPAP again but this time I used an over the nose only mask and a chin strap to keep my mouth closed. Actually got used to it pretty quick. Quit using the chin strap after coulpe weeks and sleep like I haven't in many many years. As others have said once i got to used to it can't sleep or nap without. I used to wake up several times a night my wife would jab me too quite often. Now I can go to bed at 9:30 and before I know it is 5:00. Very seldom wake at all now. If I do it is just for a few seconds. Feel 1000% better. I use a Intelipap auto and love it. For your sake and your loved ones get on it. Yes it can be a challenge but try different masks until it works for you. You won't regret it.

Today's Featured Article - The Day Mom Drove the 8N - by Brian Browning. My Dad was wanting to put in a garden but couldn't operate the 8N and handle the old horse drawn plow he had found and rigged up to use with the tractor. Well, he decided to go get Mom out of the house and have her drive the tractor while he walked behind the plow. You got to understand that while my Mom is a hard worker who will always help whenever she can... she had never operated farm machinery before that day. Dad got her out there, explained how the clutch was the same as in our o ... [Read Article]
