This is me last night, all hooked up and ready to not sleep. I know; it does look comfortable.My wife has her suspicions before I even get word back from the doctor. She's convinced I have, as one of the neighbors says, "the sleep App-nee".
At just after 5am this morning, twenty minutes before my usual automatic wake-up time, the technician walked in the room and disconnected me from all wires. Thankfully, instead of pulling off 2-inch strips of hair from my legs and chest, he suggested I could gently soap them up and pull the adhesive contacts off in the shower. If you hear a really loud scream in the next few minutes, you'll know he was lying about how easy it would be.

Too bad you didn't get this diagnosed before you retired, it is good for 50% disability through the VA! I did so, but have yet to get a CPAP machine as I tried one for several weeks and could never get used to it. I need to see the doctors again as this is something you don't want to leave untreated!

...so did you sleep...
...so did you sleep...
I'm sure I must have, at least an hour or so.
I'll try to make up for it tonight, but if I could sleep a full eight hours, I wouldn't have been there in the first place.
If you are looking for a place to rest and relax, I don't recommend it.
Wait until they throw that CPAP machine over your face! Nothing like a 45 MPH wind blowing into your nose and mouth to make you relax and sleep better!
