For years, the go-to treatment has been a CPAP or a continuous positive airway pressure machine. There's something new on the market that is giving some patients back their peaceful sleep without the clunky equipment. (Feb. 24, 2023)

I adapted to my cpap since the first night i used it. It's been a blessing ever since.

Why wouldn't you just get the surgery? Did your insurance company steer you away from it? Or deny surgery because you couldn't use one.

I just started using my CPAP nose, piece and machine. At first I could not stand it or tolerate it and I was just like this lady. But you have to force yourself and you will get comfortable and used to it and when you do get used to it and you’re gonna love it and get a great nights sleep. I started by using it for one hour and then I took it off my head and then I use it for two hours and took it off my head and then I use it for four hours and took it off my head and the next thing I knew is I was using it for the entire night and now I want it and I need it to breathe easy through the night and it stopped my snoring and I’m no longer gasping for air. It’s wonderful but you just have to get used to it.

I dont even notice when i wear my cpap machine. It feels NOTHING like 60 mph winds blowing in my face all night. Lol mine is completely silent.

That woman is a liar. CPAP therapy adjusts the velocity of air going into your lungs with your breathing, so you barely notice.

@thesnare100 9 ай бұрын

I don't want it, don't want an object/machine in my body, plus it doesn't prevent all episodes. I don't want CPAP either, I want some kind of mouthpiece or the DNA appliance. Both those options seem like avoiding the issue rather than curing/solving it. Why use a CPAP or inspire for the rest of your life rather than treating the cause of the sleep apnea in the first place and putting a STOP to the problem?

@CharleneFlorida 5 ай бұрын

I don't think she's talking about the noise, but 60mph is to describe the rush of the air when the machine suddenly ramps the pressure up. I have ResMed AirSense 11, which is quiet, but I 100% agree with the 60mph analogy. It's unbearable and not a solution for most people. That being said, I don't think the device they are advertising here is any better solution. I would never undergo surgery to implant a device that is relatively new and not even proven.

The benifits of using Cpap far out weigh the getting used to wearing it. Using mine for a few years now and I am able to wear it all night. No 60mph wind! Same for me NHS. I would love to not need the Cpap but until there is a cure or another way to help OSA I will stick with it.

So the doctor gives her a horrible mental image that most people would be fearful of. I have hypopnea, the sleep center in my brain does not function properly so i stop breathing. The first study showed that i had stopped breathing 127 times in the first 60 min. I began ( not the nose mask) use a 1/2 mask and have not issue with mask leakage because i keep my equipment clean. My machine is a Resmed and it quieter than the personal fan i use in the summer, not sure how old their machines are but the new ones are near silent.

Many people who are in perfect health still require sleep breathing therapy. Weight can stimulate and increase the severity but sleep apnea also has to do with one's body chemistry and makeup including lung capacity, oxygen retention and others. Many athletes in incredible shape rely on cpap/bipap therapy nightly.
