      Getting diagnosed was very positive for me. I did a sleep study and I was stopping breathing like a dozen times on average per hour. Started using a CPAP machine and after getting used to it and training myself to keep it on through the night, I now actually feel refreshed after sleeping after years of wondering why I feel like crap all the time

        This makes me excited to get my machine. I did a home test last week and stopped breathing an average of 35 times per hour over seven hours of sleep. Doctor wouldn’t tell me if it was bad or not just that it was well over the line to get a machine. Hoping to have one in the next week or two. I’ve been tired constantly for as long as I can remember, at least the past decade. Really hoping to have similar results as you have experienced.
