Call me a skeptic if you'd like, but I believe that CPAP is the biggest scam in America outside politics. That has been a multi-billion dollar device that can accomplish no more than getting a $3.00 sports mouthpiece that will keep your jaws aligned during sleep. When you sleep, your jaw drops, cutting down the air channel to your lungs. The CPAP does nothing more than force air through the smaller passageway. Align your teeth and you'll be set. I know that the mouthpiece isn't easy to get used to, but a CPAP surely isn't either. I know many people that have fallen for that junk, and all I hear is complaints about bruises to the face, or the tube keeping them awake, or the mask slipping around on their face. You name it, but if something is going to keep you awake, what good is it to begin with, and at what price are you willing to try something?
You sir are just wrong. I hope no one listens to you. Have had mine for 5 years now worth every penny. Sure it takes some getting use to and some just wont dedicate some time to it. I sleep very well and wont sleep with out it. Your 3.00 plastic has nothing on my sleep machine. I just received a new one resmed s9 v pap and it is by far the best machine I have had.
