This have not been going well for me this November, which is really something considering the month is only 9 days old. Here's the rundown
( Read more... )
1. I used a C-PAP machine for about 6 months. Never got used to the hideous contraption, though I know people who say theirs saved their lives. Mine gave me nosebleeds, sore throats, headaches, anxiety attacks, heat rash, contact dermatitis, and increased insomnia. Yeah, that was a real success story for me. I hope you do better. As I said, I have friends who swear theirs literally saved their lives.
2. You are the second of my friends who've had water heater problems in the past couple of months. *eyes water heater nervously*
I don't know if I'm going to make it 6-months with this thing. I hate the damn thing. I guess I'll keep going with it for a little while, but I have a feeling I'll just turn the damn thing back in and just deal with my sleep issues. Thankfully, my issues aren't life threatening, just annoying.
I didn't want to go six months. I have a very stubborn husband. LOL
And I had an insurance situation. If I hadn't gone the six months, they might not have paid for the hideous machine. Nasty thing had a computer in it that logged how many hours it was actually on my face. I had to have it on my face for eight hours. I truly got to where I would wear it from 11 PM till 7 AM, and *then* go to sleep. My days and nights got totally turned upside down. I HATED that miserable thing.
Then another doctor prescribed something that stopped my myoclonic jerks. And I quit the stupid machine. The jerking, which triggered my fibromyalgia, was what had wakened me all night. *grits teeth* Yeah, I loved that sleep doctor.
*blink* I didn't think about insurance. Well, I was going to go a month anyway, and then go back to the doctor and complain (though I haven't been very good about using it through the entire night). I guess I'll find out then what the insurance rules are.
