I have been on cpap over 6 years. Its does not work as good today as when I started. I have been rechecked 4 or 5 times.
Because I do not feel rested and have some sleepy moments during the day, I am now on provigil and mireflex for leg movement. Is this the natural progress of apnea? I would like to hear from other cpap users that have been on the machine over 5 years. Thanks
