A published scientific study showed that the thinking and problem solving deficits of fatigue reappeared in only ONE night off of CPAP for a severe case such as yours. You may not percieve (notice) the changes until the second night, but do not be fooled. Your thinking skills and reaction times, problem solving abilities are all impaired with just one night without it. DO NOT DO IT.
