My surgery date is coming up quick May 19th! I got my cpap machine almost 2 months ago and its been the greatest thing ever. Still struggle on occasion with wanting to rip it off in the middle of the night because I usually sleep on my stomach and can't do so with the mask.
I use a nasal mask and its definitely taken getting used too. I can honestly say that I never knew how tired I was until after a few days of using the mask. I felt so rested and had so much more energy. Keep pushing to use it every night even if you start with using it for 4-6 hours out of the night.
I fell asleep last night without putting it on (guess I was that tired) and I'm exhausted today. Can't wait to see if once I lose more weight if my sleep apnea will go away or not.
