    I am so jealous. I am lucky if I’m able to sleep until 6 am. The dogs sometimes wake me up at 4:30 and my wife snores like a sawmill.

        I’ve tried and I can’t fall asleep with them in. Believe me, I’ve tried every suggestion anyone has come up with.

        Part of the problem is that it’s really hard for me to fall back to sleep if something wakes me up.

            It’s probably not apnea, it’s probably allergies, because it’s a lot worse right now and there’s very little in the winter. She’s tried breathe-right strips, but she says they’re too uncomfortable.

            I also have a feeling that it would take me weeks to be able to easily fall and stay asleep with the sound of a CPAP machine, but maybe one day it will be necessary. I hope not.

              I got the latest airsense cpap machine and it’s extremely quiet for whatever that’s worth. If I took a video of it running with my phone it wouldn’t pick up any noise. I hate the thing and haven’t been able to get use out of it but I was shocked how quiet it is.
