So I'm off the CPAP machine!


Wonderful news Kasey!

When my husband was put on a CPAP machine, I thought it would keep *me*
awake. It turned out that I slept much better because I didn't have to
worry about him not breathing anymore.

He lost weight and has been off it over 2 years now.

Saw sleep doc today. On closer reveiw of my sleep study, he noted that
while I stop breathing about 50 times an hour, down from three times
that a year ago, I am getting far more oxygen. That is, even with the
apnea, my oxygen intake is nearly normal.

So I'm off the CPAP machine! (http://www.sleepapnea.org/cpap.htm)

As always, YMMV.

Excellent! My DH uses a CPAP, and it has been a Godsend for him, but
I know he'd be pleased to be rid of it. He's quite heavy, but I have
another friend who uses one for his sleep apnea and he's very thin, so
it's not always weight-related.

Same with us. Also, DH used to snore really loudly and now he does
not. The CPAP is a good thing for both of us (as long as we don't
travel someplace without the right electric current :-) ).
