This is a forum of people suffering from sleep disorders, as well as for friends and family of those with apnea, but also open to health care professionals.

Join us in our discussions, because knowing others have experienced the same thing you're dealing with can be of great comfort and help. One important factor to remember is that we are not about making judgments based on character, lifestyle, or morality. Typical discussions revolve around CPAP, BiPAP, AutoPAP or other xPAP use, as well as nasal masks, nasal pillows, nasal congestion, humidification, issues with getting used to using a CPAP or BiPAP machine, and other compliance issues. We also discuss bedmate issues, such as noise, misdirected air, and helping to get someone to realize they need to be diagnosed.

Sleep apnea and sleep disorders are serious medical conditions which require a physician's care. No specific commercial recommendation or diagnosis is intended to be implied based on any information included on any part of this group.

Polite netiquette calls for submitting your question to a single newsgroup or email discussion list most closely related to your question. Most people who answer questions read multiple newsgroups and email discussion lists, so posts on multiple lists mean others have to spend time reading the same question several times.
