Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Awww that's cute and not expensive - Thank you - I had considered making something, but that's affordable enough. I'll have to see how I do with this before making a final decision. My instincts are to always protect my family and that means not allowing them to know if anything is wrong with mom/gr...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thanks Julie and the answer is I could leave it out for the next 12 days, then I will be moving into my new home. I will need to put it up there as I purchased this home to be closer to family - who if I know them will be stopping in unannounced for a couple weeks (gotta love them though). At this p...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

SusanWink - thank you so much! I can't get quite as excited right now but maybe one day. I should pick up my machine by Tuesday and will just do it. I am researching today how I can rearrange my room to use it, put it away quickly in the morning, etc. so I can make it a part of my daily routine. Hop...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Good morning and today is better. Long list of things to do keep busy and not worry, lol! I've decided that for now, it is what it is and I will have to just deal with it - a fact of my current life. I did recall the nurse tell me to consider asking my doctor for something for anxiety and although I...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thank you kteague. I apologize if you or anyone feels I was calling you broken, I was not and I don't believe you are, actually that thought never crossed my mind. The person that is "broken" is myself, and that is the only person I am referring to. Actually for me to think of it in those terms is a...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thank you once again everyone! The youtube video was informative but more exciting were videos that followed after - which offer hope, not that I haven't received some of that here! Hope in the form of weight loss, experts speaking of various lifestyle changes that help and/or cure and new research....

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thank you for the info - mind's a ticking but need to wait until I actually see the machine and what I'm dealing with. Menopause, eh? I can't say I've been through it or I may have been and don't know it. One certain medication I take stopped all the joys of womanhood many years ago. One last questi...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thank you Pugsy. First of all I had the sleep titration May of 2017 when they were supposed to order the machine. I really assumed I didn't get it because it took me a bit to pay off the bill. The sleep titration was a disaster and I had to go home and sleep for about 4 hours I was so tired after. I...

Re: New Beginnings are terrifying!

Thanks LSAT for your thoughts. I am trying to be positive - but the fact don't change - my job will wake me, older folk need medical attention in the night - these are not things I can change. Waking up with that hose around my neck WAS terrifying so how will it not happen again? I am the most posit...

New Beginnings are terrifying!

First I want to say thank you to all that have posted. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea 10 months ago (May 2017) and was told I would need a Cpap. I waited and waited and at the beginning of February received a call from the place with the machine. Of course I said No, if it took that long, h...
