Sleep Apnea Support Group
Sleep apnea is a common sleep disorder characterized by brief interruptions of breathing during sleep. People with sleep apnea partially awaken as they struggle to breathe, but in the morning they may not be aware of sleep disturbances.
My husband is really upset with me because I don't use my machine. I guess that it needs a new filter. He says that he has tried to thump me in the head, roll me over, poke me, bump me and everything just about under the sun to get me to breath. I hold my breath too while I'm asleep. So, what do you or your partener do to make you stop? I don't even know he has done it. I don't sleep much so I guess when I do I really sleep!

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
1st you really do need to use your machine as its there for a reason...to help you sleep & to help your breathing...
Im not picking on you please dont take it that way...
OSA affects all those around you aswell as yourself.It almost cost us our marriage,
I was getting no sleep & hubby was falling asleep at the wheel of his truck.he perservered with his machine & now uses it everynight & is doing really well.I think you will find that your hubby wants you to use it for your own sake aswell as his own.i cant see it from your side as I havent tried it b4 but from seeing my hubby I do think it would have a closed in feeling.What mask do you use?Is it possible to change to another to see if that helps?Have you spoken to anyone about this?I think you may have to consider doing something along these lines to help yourself.
I dont know if I am of any help to yo, but please let us know how you are doing please.
Take care :)
