I tried cpap for over a year..mostly collected dust..thought I could do without it! Sleep apena can be deadly in more ways than one. I clipped a bridge with the cruise locked in at 70 mph...thank God I killed no one. I choose the trach route over the MMA. You still have alot of options..checked them out! By the way, trachs are not as bad as they sound or look..less painful than MMA, UPPP, and GA or smono to the base of the tongue. A trach is radical but then hittiing a bridge at 70 mph asleep is too!
