Getting a C-PAP machine next monday for "severe" Sleep Apnea, should I be excited? Will it help?

Question

I asked the sleep tech when she woke me up after spending the night in the sleep clinic if I had Sleep Apnea. She said that she has never seen it so bad in someone so young. I'm in my early thirties.

Answer 1

It will definately help and you will feel lots better. The thing you might have trouble with is the noise and sleeping with something on you rface. They have different masks that you can use. If you normally sleep with a fan on or something for noise then it wont bother you. I would just go in it with teh attitude that at first it might be an adjustment but the improvement in sleep and health makes it worth it.
