Also ebay has alot of supplies for dirt cheap.... $30-$40 for a max... works out the same price after most insurance Copay. .. however forking out $300 is alot Harder than $40.... Even hough you get a good chunk back.

Thank you so much for all the replies!! I have been to the sleep clinic (stopped breathing 70 times that night) I have a prescription to go and get a cpap. I just wasnt looking forward to strapping that thing to my face, but after all the positive and helpful comments on here i will be stopping tomorow night to get fitted for one and continue the process.

Who sent the letter and how did they know about your sleep apnea?

I'm guessing mto... my doctor told.me has a legal obligation to report it... IF treatment is not being done.... sleep apnea supposedly is one of the few things that they can (patient doctor Confidential thingy)

CPAP.jpg
Just a few of the wires/ electrodes attached for a sleep study, all those other wires over the shoulder, going to other sensors.
I tried and tried, couldn't get use to the mask, choking all the time.
Someone mentioned truck drivers using them, a word of advice, never run a CPAP machine from a truck mounted auxiliary power unit!

I have one and what terry m and others say is correct - you will never sleep better! Sleep apnea is not just obese people. It can affect anyone.

My old hunt camp has a whole sleeping area reserved for hose heads, and their CPAP batteries...

What do you mean by CPAP Batteries?
I drag a generator with me where I go.
What kind of batteries are recommended?

If anybody is interested, somebody is trying to sell a CPAP machine on the Simcoe site.

I use a trolling motor battery and a 250 watt inverter to power mine (my respironics S9) needs 200 watts to operate. The guy in the bunk above me is a light sleeper and he says he can't hear a thing. Everyone sleeps better in the camp now that 2 of us got CPAP machines.

I easily get 3 full nights before recharging the battery

Your pressure must be insane.... my s9 ran for two nights on a 12v7ah battery... and a 60w inverter... pressure 11cm ... of course I didn't use my humidifier...
