"THis very lightly sends air down your throat and keeps the passage open and apnea cannot occur."
This isn't necessairly the case! It took me close to a year get accoustomed to wearing a CPAP and many never get used to it. In my case, it was like haveing an F5 tornado blasting a wind tunnel of air up my sinuses!! I had to get used to a mild gale wind first and work my way up. It's a miserable ordeal that I wouldn't wish upon anyone. I wish the best to those who must commit to this hideous, but nessessary treatment.
