I rarely noticed when I woke up from apnea events. The only times I ever noticed was during the occassional dash for the bathroom. It was my wife who alerted me to the fact I was "holding my breath" at night.

I to have a moustache and I find that if I keep it trimmed it in no way negatively effects the CPAP. If I allow it to go a few days without trimming and it gets somewhat bushy it can cause a few small leaks. But what would CPAP be without a small leak or 2? : )
