New Guy

Post by Bob38 » Fri Feb 07, 2014 3:17 pm

Hey all. Just want to say that Im a new Guy and I'm looking forward to the days with more energy. Just finished my first night with my CPAP and Im pumped! The machine worked like a dream and I slept like a baby. I know I will have questions sooner or later so just wanted to say thanks to everyone and look forward to participating in the group.

Hello Bob38 and welcome. Always good to hear when someone gets off to a good start. I have to confess when I saw your picture I didn't have my glasses on and I thought, wow, that's quite a beard, hope it doesn't give him problems with his mask fit. Then I got closer and realized it's your dog. Cute dog.

Congratulations, you did great.

The great thing about this forum is that there are so many contributors and everyone is not the same so there is always great info to be found.

What I have learned from all the years on CPAP is that equipment is always getting better and life goes on nothing stays the same.

Stick with it, ask questions, and keep up the great attitude, it will take you a long way in improving your sleep.
