About the Owner of CPAP Sales
Hi, my name is Mark, and I have Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA)
Like many people, I didn't know (or realise) I had a problem. I snored like a train but thought that was normal.
I was always tired and never felt refreshed after a 'good' night's sleep. I would stop breathing many times during the night and wake up gasping for breath. I didn't know this, but my wife was worried enough to insist that I see a doctor, who referred me to a Specialist.
After waiting for a couple of months, I had an overnight sleep study done at a local hospital. I had more wires connected to me than a Christmas tree. During the sleep study, I stopped breathing for more than 50 times every hour! - hard to believe, but the reality was that I had severe OSA.
The follow up Q&A session with my Specialist summarised and put things into perspective...
Q.Is there a cure for sleep apnea?
A. No, but it can be effectively managed with a CPAP machine.
Q. Is this for life?
A. Yes, so no choice really but to get used to it.
Q. What do I do next?
A. Buy a CPAP machine. You can rent one to see which model you prefer, but essentially they are all the same. They blow air and keep your airway open while you are asleep.
Q. Where do I get one from, and how much are they?
A. CPAP Sales. Prices range from $599 to $999
