    Have you used the mask yet and did you feel great the next morning?

    If they tell you to use the bipap, use it. You get used to it.

    My boyfriend is a big guy and I "diagnosed" his sleep apnea. I told him he had it and insisted that he go get seen. I insisted he wear the mask. He adjusted very quickly. I hate it, lol. There is nothing romantic about it. But it beats the snoring that woke me up so much I started hating him, lol.

    For many people, it's the fat that causes the apnea. If you lose the fat, get yourself re-checked. :)
