A little under a week using a CPAP. I used to absolutely NEED daily naps. Nary a one since starting.

Learning to sleep on my back or left side facing left is a big departure from laying on my stomach and looking left.

But the mask and hose are not at all uncomfortable or annoying.

I'm also still using a 30 day heart monitor with 4 leads and a palm-sized unit. That's a bit more annoying.

But I'm about This >< Close to being Lord Vader with all the machinery I'm hooked up to.

I've been tempted to try something like that. I did get tested for apnea and they didn't find any, though. Just snoring. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 7, 21:55
Heh, every time I hear CPAP I think of one of our desert rats running a long extension cord out of the restroom to her tent :) - Meg Nov 7, 21:28 2
- I had a fieldy who modified his field ute with extra batteries for his CPAP. even had a switch to isolate one to start the car in the morning. -- nm - mafic Nov 7, 21:41 1
  - I think we tried something like that for dry camping but the extension cord was preferred if there was a source. - Meg Nov 7, 22:02
