I have recently been diagnosed with Sleep Apnea, after having a sleep study, and i am going back in 2 weeks for an overnight stay, and to use a CPAP machine. i have heard it is a bit of a pain, but as it helps so much, and you get used to it. I just cant wait to start to feel better and less tired as, i hate the symptoms of this disease. Wish me luck


LadyM's Opinion

I just slap my fiancee when he quits breathing at night


Don't ask how I'm doing if you don't want to know!

I used to have that when I was a kid. My parents always had to keep an eye on me while I was sleeping. Doesn't seem to be an issue any longer though.


When your dreams come true, are they still dreams?

my son was diagnosed with this problem when he was 2yr's old, he too used to stop breathing for around 30/40 seconds. his peadiatrician advised me & my husband to let him have a [Tonsilectomy/& adaniod removal] After his operation the surgeon came up to speak to my husband & me & said " he had never seen Tonsils as big as he had, even in all the adults he had opperated on.Tell him to get his tonsils/adanoids checked out off his [GP]He may need a small opp to make things better for him, i know it certainly made a fantastic diff for my son. Hope this has been of some help for you both, take care, sonia
