Sleep apnea is way more common than anyone would guess. I was falling asleep during the day. Would stop breathing at night to the point it was scaring wifey. Quality of life was shot to shit. Had the study, got the machine. After the first night it seemed like the world got brighter by a factor of ten.

One of the best decisions of my life was to get a CPAP. I was severe, 47x per hour. No health insurance, so I went the cheapest route possible; doctors appt for perscription, then portable home sleep study. Much less expensive than going in & having some tend to you, confirming what you already know. Used to get up to urinate every night along with all the apneas' and hypopneas'. Now I'm like a baby, out cold till morning.

Have used a cpap machine because of sleep apnea for 8 years. Without keeping your air way open, which a cpap will do, you stop breathing multiple times an hour, your heart stops, you gasp for air and then your heart kick starts. The risk of heart attack is high.
You need a prescription as the doctor needs to set the volume of air that addresses your individual problem. There us a wide array of masks to test....so you find the most comfortable version. I use what is cause nasal air....two cushions at the nostrils vs. a giant friggen mask that covers your nose and/or nose and mouth. It takes some getting use to at the start.......
Kinda scary to think you are dependant on a machine to help with something as natural as sleeping.
