I can’t afford a CPAP machine right now. Are there any other alternatives that help with sleep apnea? I’ve tried a dental device before, but it hurts my jaw and teeth too much. Surgery is also not an option right now due to the cost. Is there anything else that can be done? I’m trying to lose weight, so no need to tell me that, either.
I had a sleep study done, and I stop breathing 35 x per hour. That’s not too bad (yet), but it’s not easy to function some days when I’m tired from lack of QUALITY sleep. Of course, my insurance, doesn’t cover medical equipment (great, huh? – they’ll diagnose ya, but they won’t help cure ya!!).Does anyone have any info on who I can contact for free / used / deep discounted CPAP equipment? I know I need to get a new mask, and hoses. I’ve tried hospitals, and American Red Cross, with no luck.
They want to run more tests but I have been with out that machine for days now, and I can tell a difference. I am so tired.
What can I do until I get a CPAP to sleep with, that I won’t be so tired?
I do not have obstructive but central sleep apnea.
I can really tell a difference in my energy when I use the CPAP. I contacted the DR but ehy want me to wait until I have taken more tests.
I’m a teen and I have mild sleep apnea. Is a CPAP machine effective and is it really loud? I share I room and I don’t want it disturbing anyone. Is there anything I can do that will help me?
My father has Obstructive Sleep Apnea and will be going in for a sleep study soon so I am looking at CPAP Machines and doing research.
My father came across an add for this “Oral Appliance Therapy” thing and I am wondering if you have any info on if it works or if it is a scam.

I have a CPA because I have Central sleep apnea. For some reason unknown I just stop breathing while I am sleeping.
I am take Lexapro before I go to bed. I was taking it in the morning but I was so sleepy during the day so I started taking it at night.
I use a CPAP MACHINE sorry
About 3 years ago I did a sleep study and was found to have Obstructive sleep apnea. My 2nd sleep study about a year later after having surgery for a deviated septum and another surgery to remove my tonsils showed that I was having Central Sleep Apnea issues throughout the night. Not all night but at times. The sleep study tech looked shocked when she saw this. I later found out that Central Sleep Apnea isn’t that common. After the 1st sleep apnea study I was given a CPAP which I was compliant with but didn’t change a thing after more than 2 months of use. Not a thing changed health wise. I tried all the masks, full face, nose only, mouth only. I have about 5 or 6 different types of masks and while some work better than others none have worked. After doing some research I saw that people who aren’t compliant with CPAP or people who have Central Sleep Apnea do A LOT better with a BiPAP. Problem is my insurance doesn’t cover BiPAPs or meds for Central Sleep Apnea only CPAPs. Any suggestions other than getting a different insurance which isn’t possible at this time.
