    CPAP therapy starting today :(

    My dad has one and he has had to try a few different masks till he got the right one! He definately has more energy and isn't as worried about passing away in his sleep...his apnoea was extremely bad at his sleep study they said he stopped breathing more than 20 times
    It takes a lot to get used to but you will have a better quality of life getting a better sleep

    My Dad has one too and he has lost 20kg since using it. He has so much more energy and is able to exercise and function normally so it has made a huge difference to him. He also found that by losing weight it has helped his apnoea a bit as well.
