I just started using my CPAP nose, piece and machine. At first I could not stand it or tolerate it and I was just like this lady. But you have to force yourself and you will get comfortable and used to it and when you do get used to it and you’re gonna love it and get a great nights sleep. I started by using it for one hour and then I took it off my head and then I use it for two hours and took it off my head and then I use it for four hours and took it off my head and the next thing I knew is I was using it for the entire night and now I want it and I need it to breathe easy through the night and it stopped my snoring and I’m no longer gasping for air. It’s wonderful but you just have to get used to it.
@@YXEFlatl1ne I’ve tried the c-pap machine(s) on and off for decades. They are so uncomfortable, they fit tight on your face, there’s a long hose that goes from the machine to the mask so there’s no moving around. Torture, pure torture. I prefer to get some sleep without it. Going on 15 years without one.
I hate mine, it’s uncomfortable and tangles up on me like a boa constrictor but it’s nothing like the analogy of 60mph wind, that Dr. should rethink what s/he’s telling ppl.
I don't want it, don't want an object/machine in my body, plus it doesn't prevent all episodes. I don't want CPAP either, I want some kind of mouthpiece or the DNA appliance. Both those options seem like avoiding the issue rather than curing/solving it. Why use a CPAP or inspire for the rest of your life rather than treating the cause of the sleep apnea in the first place and putting a STOP to the problem?
I use a simple fan (at very slow speed) that I put on my bedside table, I plug in a timer so that it starts between (2:00 and 2:15) then (3:00 and 3:15) then (4:00 and 4:15 a.m.), cost of installation 40 dollars...
@@leonardodalongisland During the night in your room, the carbon dioxide from your breath stagnates on the floor, in the middle of the night the level has risen and... you lack oxygen, an air circulation brings air from the ceiling to your nostrils: in addition the air pulsed by the fan forces the entry into your nostrils better than the natural air in your room. This method means that I only wake up 2 times a night instead of 4 times, quite a change for me. If I have 25 likes I will give the name of the fan.
How was your recovery after surgery? I’m scheduled to have mine put in on 4/11 and am still a bit nervous. I’m hoping to hear more from others who have it.
@@lisachambers6230 hi miss Lissa, how was everuthing, I'm going to schedule mine in the next couple of months, and the most important question, how does it work? it works well?
I don't think she's talking about the noise, but 60mph is to describe the rush of the air when the machine suddenly ramps the pressure up. I have ResMed AirSense 11, which is quiet, but I 100% agree with the 60mph analogy. It's unbearable and not a solution for most people. That being said, I don't think the device they are advertising here is any better solution. I would never undergo surgery to implant a device that is relatively new and not even proven.

Looks like a Pacemaker for your throat muscles. I used CPAP in the UK prescribed by my NHS hospital. Free under the national medical insurance in the UK. But wiil look into this. Loosing a lot of weight loss around neck is also effective.
The benifits of using Cpap far out weigh the getting used to wearing it. Using mine for a few years now and I am able to wear it all night. No 60mph wind! Same for me NHS. I would love to not need the Cpap but until there is a cure or another way to help OSA I will stick with it.
@@OldsmobileCutlassSupremeConver Because you can have complications, you can die, the machine works and no cutting on my body or the device can track me from the inside. etc... It's not for me.
No clue what to do anymore I have tmj so can’t treat it with mouth guard Dryness and rosacea already so masks make it worse And afraid to get the device Because I’m not even sure I have true apnea I was told it was obstructive in 2009 but also airways narrow and deviated septum Docs are useless around me so idk
So basically it’s like someone standing next to the bed and they shake you before you get into REM or deep levels of sleep. I could stand next to a patient and shake them to wake a little when they have an apnea and they wake just enough to take a breath equal to tongue Stimulation….. just my take ….Registered Respiratory Therapist….not an ENT however…I work nights and have done 1,000’s of sleep studies at night. ..I may be wrong …however the tongue stimulation wakes the body in addition of to tongue stimuli and wakes the patient just enough to tell the brain to take a breath ….. not saying this isn’t an amazing piece or equipment ….interesting eh…
So the doctor gives her a horrible mental image that most people would be fearful of. I have hypopnea, the sleep center in my brain does not function properly so i stop breathing. The first study showed that i had stopped breathing 127 times in the first 60 min. I began ( not the nose mask) use a 1/2 mask and have not issue with mask leakage because i keep my equipment clean. My machine is a Resmed and it quieter than the personal fan i use in the summer, not sure how old their machines are but the new ones are near silent.
When I in apnea someone paciently give me a slap like a woman does in a repulsive man. So I think a gadget shold give a shocking or a slap when apnea occurs was a good solution. Apnea, slap, ahhhh, and sleeping like a child again.
FDA Approved? Means, this device is controlled by the government. If you think Alexa spies on you! Now the government knows even when it is potty time. With my CPAP machine I just throw it in the closet and walk away from it, and all they hear is me slamming the closet door on them! Doctor forgot to mention that when the battery runs out, they have to change it with more surgery.
Many people who are in perfect health still require sleep breathing therapy. Weight can stimulate and increase the severity but sleep apnea also has to do with one's body chemistry and makeup including lung capacity, oxygen retention and others. Many athletes in incredible shape rely on cpap/bipap therapy nightly.
You’ve obviously never heard of central sleep apnea which is what I have. I’m in great shape. Run marathons. Central sleep apnea compared to obstructive sleep apnea there’s nothing you can do anything about
People now live into their 80’s, people very rarely did that 1000 years ago. Having said that I don’t enjoy wearing my CPAP mask, but I’m sure as heck not going to have a foreign object installed in my body unless it’s a matter of life or death without any other option.
I adapted to my cpap since the first night i used it. It's been a blessing ever since.
Why wouldn't you just get the surgery?
Did your insurance company steer you away from it?
Or deny surgery because you couldn't use one.

I dont even notice when i wear my cpap machine. It feels NOTHING like 60 mph winds blowing in my face all night. Lol mine is completely silent.

What model of CPAP do you use?
That really depends from person to person. I have used several brands/models & different masks but the sound keeps me from getting a proper sleep.
@@victorsanmartin2702 I use a Luna G3. And I use the nasal pillows instead of the mask.
That woman is a liar. CPAP therapy adjusts the velocity of air going into your lungs with your breathing, so you barely notice.
These are the options they give people surgery or wind blowing down your throat at 60mph?
Had mine for 2 years now ❤️
It’s not that bad, you have to give it a period of adjustment.
Had my machine since 2020.

Because then we wouldn't be able to profit off of you.
What is the cause. How do you reverse aging and the relaxing of the throat muscles?
Money?
I have epilepsy and Sleep apnea Cpap is what keeps me alive so eh so be it

Why not a sleeping pill ?
Maybe check what sleep apnea is. It’s not trouble sleeping, is an air blockage in your sleep.
Due to relaxation of muscles it makes the apnea worse ;-)
Does it play DVD's? DOES IT PLAY DVD's? Eddie Murphy in movie Trading places.
❓🤷🏻♂️❓
@@Guido.Fawkes.1 guessing it was a joke, and not a funny one, either. Also, there were no DVD's when trading places was released.

Easier said than done. Also losing weight might help, but for obstructive apnea.
