It just takes time. I personally do not use, but not my brother, aunt, wife and sister in law. It just takes time and realize how much better you feel with him and health. It took my sister a few weeks before she stopped complaining:) Give answer to this question below!

Question by DanielP: I just had a cpap titration for my sleep apnea, is that machine something you get used too?
I went to this and slept for about three hours and that’s it, was my first time using this machine.
I feel pretty rested and think I could get used to using it I am just trying to get the opinion of people who currently use this machine.

Daniel, Can you say life changing??? I did my sleep cpap titration over 5 years ago this June and I can tell you that you just did the hardest part, I have used my CPAP for over 5 years non-stop. When I travel if I have nothing else, I have my machine, that includes my wife. I do not know what mask you will pick, but that will be something that you will have to choose, I use the Mirage Swift Mask, and I love it. It offers in my opinion, more flexibility and I purchased the extended hose for about .00, not to expensive? Great move, one you will not regret. Congratulations!!!

I have used the machine for about a week, but can not stay asleep with it on for very long? How long does it take to adjust to these things. I am determined to use it.

the ones to keep you awake… as in antipsychotics, narcotics etc… trying to locate what would be covered under our insurance because my husband’s prescription is not and I can’t figure out what category to look under.

My machine is set to “20″.I take it off in my sleep an hour or two into sleeping..and dont remember it.Also,does it effect your stomach?
