    I too have a CPAP Machine.
    I went for a medical for a job and failed medical. when i got checked out i had severe sleep apnea. I stopped breathing 112 times an hour.
    I used to wake up really tired.
    Glad i moved over here as the UK dont test for apnea during routine medicals.And as jackrussell says it can cause huge problems.

    Since having my machine,I sleep much better,feel much better and have lost 24lbs in weight so far.Hopefully when i go back to doctors for my yearly medical my blood pressure will be lower too.

    She sounds like a fecking chainsaw, I've slept in spare room for last five years nip in her room for cheekies and that but once she's asleep it like being with a lumber jack

    Sorry for the late response I must have dosed off, but seriously in my case looking back I'd probably had sleep apnea for years but it got worse in my 40's as I clapped a load of weight on ,ended up with a severe form of apnea, falling asleep at the drop of a hat , finally dropped off in a meeting at work snoring like a pneumatic drill . Like others have said if you snore a lot and have any on going fatigue problems after sleep I'd go see your doctor and get referred to the sleep clinic. I left it way too late and ended up having a heart attack and angina but for me ,now I'm on the machine it's a new life, I'm awake but it's probably had a greater benefit on my wife who no longer needs industrial ear protection at night.

    you never get two insomniacs sharing a bed - neither will you find couples where both are snorers.
    Why is it people who snore never warn you when you have to share a room with them?
    And why is it that it is usually the non-snorer who moves out of the bedroom not the snorer?

    I always used to take a variety of ear plugs when going away golfing and they were for the lads in the bedrooms adjacent to mine ! Not now everyone wants to share with me I don't snore even after a skin full

    I'm told I do. But if it's true, I put it down to sleeping with a clear conscience!:D
