trying the full face mask tonight

Posted by gerbil on October 01, 2002 at 12:49:23:

After my previous posting I've been back to the hospital and have been given the full face job,also I've asked to keep it for two weeks instead of the one.Apparently this one I have now is a more sophisticated one that records what happens when I sleep and self adjusts for pressure etc.If after the data is analised that I can benifit from sleeping in the mask then I get issued a slightly less expensive one with a fixed pre determined pressure.Anyway I don't want to get ahead of myself and second guess results in case I am dissapointed,it's difficult not to hope for too much after so many years of daytime sleepiness and cat naps and feeling like zombie.
thanks for the previuos replies gerbil.
