I Feel Good!!!!!


Posted by learningaboutSA on March 03, 2006 at 07:49:08:


I am a brand new CPAP user. Yesterday I went to pick up my machine (it is a trial for 1 month) - a regular F&P CPAP. My flo is 15 - pretty high, I have very severe S.A.

I'm in Canada, they gave me a 'free month trial' - then I purchase.

I put that mask on last night, and slept 8 HOURS!!!!
Yes I did wake up a few times, but the mask wasn't too uncomfortable. I slept great! It felt GOOD to breath!

I did have a little trouble exhaling with the powerful air flow of 15, and will consider the respironics a-flex (it was not available for the 1 month trial - only a CPAP). But BOY do I feel good - I am almost on a high - lots of energy today!

I hope this great feeling keeps up!

Thanks to everyone for your advice I have learned a lot on this site and it has helped me tremendously.
