Yikes ~ Our friend uses a CPAP and actually says his quality of sleep is better. Hope you get the hang of it and USE it regularly. That's an order...:)

Use the CPAP Twink!!! P-l-e-a-s-e? :smileypray:

How would we manage without your wacky SOH if you stopped breathing for good?? Huh? :confused:

Well, we just wouldn't!.................http://i265.photobucket.com/albums/i...ilies/NO11.gif..................So please use the CPAP!

Rochelle!! Your title scared the carp out of me!! Keep on breathin' lady, we need you around here! :) Heck, I'm hoping that you make another trip to FL so we can try to meet again. Take that darn machine with you when you're traveling too!

Goodness, put that machine on and be safe. Don't want your toes to curl up! Many hugs, froggie:)

You sure know how to wake a girl up! First thread I saw this morning & you had me worried! No wonder you feel tired. I've never used a CPAP, but know several people who do. It's made a world of difference for them, but not one says they like using it..
Take care of yourself Rochelle! You can see from everyone's replies that you're a Very Important Person around here! :hug:

Wow Twink, This hasn't been your year!! One adventure after another! Put that c-pap on and start feeling better. How"s the ankle? Do you have the newer version of c-pap? Take care of yourself, so you can twinkle on.:D

Thanks everyone. You can be proud of me: I did battle with the miserable machine last night. Didn't get much sleep, but I wore the derned thing!

And no, :mad: I don't feel better. But it might be b/c I'm dealing with allergies.

I'll check in again when I get back Sat. Thanks for caring! :circlelove:

Twink, if you have used a CPAP before you know it can take weeks before you notice a difference and even longer for the full affects depending on how long this has been going on.

Allergies: make sure your using your allergy meds and if you don't already use a nasal spray then talk to your PCP about getting one.

Twinkletoes 04-26-2008 10:17 PM

Yep, Thanks Frank!

Thanks, Snoopy, for reminding me that it could take awhile b4 I feel totally better.

But yes, I AM sleeping with the dreaded CPAP. Oh, and DH too! :wink:

Anyone have sugggestions for minimizing the lines the mask leaves? (Using one that covers mouth & nose).
