You are right to be excited. Many people get their life back after getting their apnea fixed.

Some people get immediate relief from CPAP but others struggle with masks, pressures, etc before they start feeling the results. Give it some time and consult the forum to help with these issues.

Without CPAP, like many, I'd probably be disabled or a cliff jumper. Feel fortunate. So many of us fight with various symptoms for years, some decades, before our sleep breathing disorder is found. It can be quite a revelatory experience.

Rubber hose :) I can relate!
