In reply to any CPAP (sleep apnea treatment) experiences?, posted by craig allen on October 25, 2003, at 15:04:45
I'm still exhausted after a month of my CPAP machine, but maybe after years of sleep deprivation it will take awhile to catch up. :)
Also, I have restless leg movements (whatever...) when I sleep and that still walks me up at night but I don't remember it. They caught it on tape during the sleep study. It is a side effect of Effexor I believe. Also, to be honest the Topomax (300mg) is probably what is keeping me tired, the two kids, teaching, and finishing my masters online (5 minutes ago). PS.I am opting for the surgery to take care of my breathing problems because there is no way I am wearing a mask my whole life, by the way I don't wear a mask now, I recommend a CPAP without a mask and straps for people who are anxious like me (it fits into your nose).
