I have been on CPAP for almost 2 years. Took awhile to find the right mask...was doing pretty real good, feeling real good for a while now. But NOW every mask leaks air, or in an attempt to stop air leaks, have it so tight it cuts my sinus and I feel like I am sufficating during the night. Last night I got SOOOO annoyed I yanked it off, thru it on the floor and turned off the machine. I was VERY aware how very frequent I was stopping breathing all night. Feel like crap today!!! NO idea what to do. We don't have the money to send me for a 2nd sleep study and start all over.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

" I had sleep apnea for several years, and I went through several different sleep apnea treatments before I discovered a website that explained what exactly caused sleep apnea. I did more research and found a herbal apnea remedy that helped me breath better at night. This allowed me to sleep better overall, and after only a few nights of using this supplement, I noticed that I was able to concentrate better during the day and I had more energy throughout the day. When I first started using this, I was not sure how well this remedy was going to work, but it proved to work much better than I had imagined it would. My family noticed a bigger difference in my behavior than even I did! I have friends who have sleep apnea as well and I told them about this herbal apnea remedy, and after doing some of thier own research, they also tried this supplement. It worked better than anything else that they had tried. You see, this is a natural apnea remedy that is a combination of herbs that work together to provide comfort and relaxation while sleeping. With this supplement, you will be able to stop using your CPAP. This isn't some kind of "miracle drug" that works overnight. It takes a few nights (or weeks, depending upon how severe your apnea is) to start showing significant results. However, if you consistently take it once a night, it will work.

Overall this works well for me, and I have been taking this supplement for over three months now, and have not had any problems from it. If you are suffering from sleep apnea and would like to sleep better at night, click below for more information about this supplement.
