Yes, I am treating everything they are throwing at me, including thyroid. It's interesting that NONE of my symptoms change whether I'm on thyroid med (only the lowest does is needed) or not. The numbers change, and that's what they look at. Symptoms remain the same, and I have stopped taking the med. FIRST thing they do is say, "You HAVE to treat your thyroid "problem" so I go back on the meds to bring the numbers where they want them, to shut them up and force them to look for the REAL problems, instead of sweeping them under the rug.

I was told that I may NOT ever feel better by using a CPAP, but that I need to continue to use it as a "preventative measure" for some of the side affects of my many hypopneas.

Machine is below bed level. So if condensation in the mask is not good, I'll just keep the setting at I for now, and adjust as the the weather changes.
