And now, for something completely different - My genteel, lady-like manner will not allow me to use the words I'd like to use to express my opinion of the c-pap. I got far less sleep than I had before the trial, the morning headaches were severe, I became zombie-like with a flat affect. I was a crank, and my husbands' professional opinion, (medical profession)was that I was bordering on suicidal. I need a full face mask because I am a mouth breather. I know that I have a deviated nasal septum, which is most likely a big part of my problem. However, Medicare won't allow the ENT docs to examine me until I go through all of this c-pap rig-a-ma-role.

Many of my c-pap friends are amazed to hear my stories because they absolutely love the way their machines work, and the way they feel. It just didn't work for me. Hope you have better results.
