I was about to give my CPAP away it was so uncomfortable, but I finally got used to it and now I wear it nightly, for the entire night.

Have you tried adjusting your mask? Have you tried using a different type of mask?

I HAVE TRIED TO SLEEP WITH MY MASK ON FOR A WEEK NOW AND CAN'T GO TO SLEEP.

I LIE THERE AND BREATH OK, BUT IT HURTS MY NOSE AND EVEN WITH A SLEEPING PILL I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO WEAR IT ALL NIGHT.

NOW I AM TOLD MEDICARE WILL NOT PAY FOR IT, UNLESS I CAN SLEEP AT LEAST 4 HOURS A NIGHT WITH IT ON.

HOW DO I SLEEP? ANY IDEAS? HELP!!!

First, I have never purchased anything from this company until today. Secondly, I spoke to a resp. therapist about a new mask (which I ordered) and told her the following: I have been using acpap for about 18 years. My first machine still works, as does the second, not so the 3rd - its switch broke. The machines do their job. In all of those years, I have just retired my 3rd mask. Simple cleaning and maintenance will keep your maask in proper form. I know insurance covers replacements, sometimes with a co-pay or deductible, but would it not be better to keep one's money in one's own pocket. Clean and breathe better and feel better.

Manageable way of handling the hose from mask to machine so that it is out of the way while sleeping and turning etc. Is this of interest?????
