Tomorrow I get a Bipap machine
My cpap has been a problem since I got it...I had another sleep study done last week and they are going to change me to a bipap

The results of the study came in the mail today. They indicate I have severe sleep apnea I stopped breathing or decreased breathing for 10 seconds or more 35 times an hour and my oxygen level got down to 75%.

3. I've used 2 or 3
The last one I was using is a full face mask, but in the study the other evening I tried a new one that was perfect

this is what I have now
