CPAP Training and Fitting

Jul 13, 2010

I now have my very own CPAP and you can bet I am UBER-EXCITED!  NOT!  Honestly, I do not believe that I have had daytime symptoms related to sleep apnea.  To me, this is just something for the insurance company to have to pay for...I know, I know, people have died from sleep apnea.  I understand.  I get it.  I will comply.  HOWEVER, I am not excited about it.  Have you ever actually looked at the mask?  I mean it makes me look like I'm from outerspace!  Maybe it will scare away anyone who would try to kidnap me in the night!  HA!  Actually, if anyone tried to kidnap me, I would be returned as soon as I opened my mouth!!!  Giggling!

Back in June, I listed my hurdles and it appears as if my list is getting a little bit shorter every week!
