Getting tested for sleep apnea this week. First an at home test and then a sleep study. My doctor seems to think I may have it due to my energy levels after blood tests, etc came back good.

Good luck. I ended up with a CPAP, best thing ever.

You and I are likely in the same boat, I should get tested, but I can't imagine sleeping with a mask on my face. . . I imagine that for at least a while it would be incredibly annoying to sleep with.

I thought the same thing when I started sleeping with a face mask on to block sunlight + White Noise Machine t and you really don't notice it after a few days.

It’s no big deal at all. You get used to it in minutes.

I can only upvote this once damit! Also...a CPAP device could save your life! Sleep apnea is a strong contributor to heart arrhythmias (I know this one personally).

@scottalanmiller that's when you should snatch the baggie right off her leg while yelling "YOINK!!!" and run out.

Or to just suffocation. That's the bigger issue with me. No CPAP, and I just stop breathing completely.

What if you just know that you have sleep apnea, can you just buy a cpap? Are there universal Cpaps? Is there any danger?

Not in the US. They are classified as a "medicine" in order to funnel more money to the "system". You are forced to pay doctors for no reason, forced to pay extremely high CPAP fees for no reason. This is literally a time where a ticket to another country can be paid for by the reduction in costs in acquiring the "medicine" you need. The flights can be so cheap, that the cost savings on the CPAP will pay for your vacation.

There is no danger as long as you set the CPAP to a reasonably amount. Don't just set it above nine and go crazy. Set at five, see if it works, edge it up as needed. Don't be silly, but it's like drinking water. As long as you don't do some drinking challenge to see how many gallons of water you can drink in one day, it's safe to buy and drink all the water you want.
Hurting yourself with a CPAP would hurt, instantly. Your CPAP should not hurt, it should feel great.
