There was a recent thread where CPAP and the Planets experience with apnea and CPAP was discussed. Pretty long thread. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showt...highlight=CPAP

I use to perform sleep studies and score them. Try the nasal pillows. Get some sleep aid. It's going to be weird at first and difficult to fall asleep. You have no choice. Apnea will kill you.

You are going to be amazed at the change in the quality of your life. Your problem is that you never get into reem 3 sleep. Thats the most restful stage of sleep. You will get there faster and stay there longer. 5 hours of sleep will feel like 12 hours of sleep.
