DH will get into a position where air is blowing into my eyes, but I'm happy to turn over when that happens.

Is the CPAP noisy?
My doctor is trying to talk me into getting a sleep study done. It costs $3000 and the machine costs $2500 from what I have heard. I have not done it because of the money and because if the machine is noisy, I will have to sleep on the couch so it won't bother my husband. Right now I am taking Provigil because I am so sleepy I cannot function. My doctor won't renew my prescription until I have this worked up. After reading below about the niece that died at 39, which is my age, I think I should at least be evaulated.
Noisy, no, sleep like a baby with it being
in the room right across the bed from me. It is very, very quiet. I read in the paper about young person who had recently gone in with family buying restaurant, about to open and he didn’t make it, died in sleep from sleep apnea. This is not cosmetic but life saver. If I had to (and no insurance) would scrimp and save every penny I could get in order to have this life saver. Taking medication for the sleepiness is only a bandaid on a major pumper.
