You are as just as clueless about this as you are every subject you reply to here.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3021364/ Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) adversely affects multiple organs and systems, with particular relevance to cardiovascular disease. Several conditions associated with OSA, such as high BP, insulin resistance, systemic inflammation, visceral fat deposition, and dyslipidemia, are also present in other conditions closely related to OSA, such as obesity and reduced sleep duration. Weight loss has been accompanied by improvement in characteristics related not only to obesity but to OSA as well, suggesting that weight loss might be a cornerstone of the treatment of both conditions. |

I think I had it so some degree. I'd wake up with terrible cottonmouth (and the dreams where you're guzzling water but it doesn't wet your mouth at all - ugh). Then I lost weight and it stopped.

I have had sleep apnea for a very long time. I had sleep apnea when I weighed 138 pounds in high school, and I had sleep apnea when I was older and weighed 250 pounds. For me, and literally thousands upon thousands of people like me, my bottom jaw is slightly back, making the opening of my airway very narrow. There is nothing that can be done for it. Some people with this issue can make it with a mouthpiece that pulls the jaw slightly forward, but that doesn't work for me. So, there is no trick to not having sleep apnea. |

One of my uncles was really fat and consequently had sleep apnea. He had great luck initially of sleeping on his stomach which eliminated his need for a cpap and didnt have sleep apnea as bad. But he eventually got so ****ing fat that he simply couldn't sleep on his stomach anymore. The fatter you are the harder it is to sleep on your stomach.

The resmed10 is probably the best CPAP on the market in turns of durability. It is even better than the resmed 11 from what I understand. That said, it is *not* a camper friendly CPAP machine. You will want a separate travel CPAP if you do a lot of travel, and to be honest, nothing really works well for camping, especially if you spend more than one night out camping. You have gone this long without it, just skip it when camping....it probably isn't worth the extra weight in your backpack. Get a CPAP machine that best suits your most likely needs....if you sleep at home a lot, get a full sized CPAP machine with a humidifier. |
