Oh cool, do you try to do Bane impressions when it's on? I certainly would. I'd also probably use it to scare the crap out of my roomate/siblings in the middle of the night.

How long have you had Sleep Apnea? I heard it can really suck untreated.

I do, but it's hard because you can't really talk with the thing blowing air down your nose.

Since High School, though I didn't get treated till Junior year, I believe. And it totally sucks untreated, the difference is like night and day.

How did you become aware you needed to be diagnosed?

Had difficulty paying attention in class or focusing on anything at all. Things that I found enjoyable I couldn't spend more than 10 minutes on without switching to something else. I was fidgeting like crazy all the time. I also started snoring like crazy.

Went to my doc, thought I had ADHD, got me a sleep study at the Children's Hospital, and the rest is history!

I lost weight wearing this thing. It's not a miracle-worker, but man it's awesome.
