I must have been lucky!

I am reading these post, and i see a lot of people saying that they had 2 or three studies before they were able to get their cpap machines. I had only one. During the study they had me sleep without a machine then a few hours later i was hooked up to cpap and while in that sleep they were able to determine the correct pressure for me. When I left the study i had my results and was told to march right over to my Dr. and let him review the findings. After he read the results i was sent to a med supply store and by 11 am I had my little miracle machine. i have been on cpap for 5 years now and it has been wonderful! Sure there are a few draw backs like when you get a cold, or leaks sometimes, but i can live with that as the other alternative of not being alive. I fell like a teenager again! If you have any questions or just need some support just drop a e-mail my way! Hoseheads rule!
