ghostdog128 said:I've been using a cpap for 3 years now.. as much as i hated it when I first got it now I can't sleep without it. I literally wake myself up the instant I fall asleep from snoring if I try to sleep without it.
Thats exactly how I am too!
My apnea started in the end of 2002 , I nove 2001 I was 268 dieting down, I got into a bad accident that cause me internal bleeding in my abdomin,, Well needless to say I spent 7 weeks in the hosp being tube fed and went down to 195 lbs .. When I came home , I looked like a POW ! I took me a year to start training with weights again so for the time being I did yoga,, yes yoga... It actually conditioned my muscles and got me started again.
Well,, after a year or so I went past my 268 mark to the 290s.. I snored like a caturpillar dozer at 268 but at 290s I stoppped breathing alot , thats when I went to the doc..
What bothers me most is that I am reliant on the cpap now to sleep...Its not comfortable,, but it works !
