agoodwinsmith | Second sleep study

... you gotta be kidding me.

As sticky as before, and as swaddled and restricted by wires as before, but add into the mix a CPAP machine where someone turns up the pressure as you sleep, and I seriously do not believe this can help anything.

I kept waking up because the air was farting out of the mask around my chin. Yes, the straps can be snugged tighter, but only if I want a merciless headache.

Anyhoo. I get to try one for 30 days, so maybe if the only new thing is the CPAP in my routine, it might do something useful. My suspision is: hah.

You know what drives me mad: I never once mentioned that I have trouble sleeping. Once asleep, I don't have trouble sleeping. I have trouble going to bed (not the falling asleep part; the actual committing to ending the day part). What I complained about was some extra water retention. Which led to the scare about the lung nodule, and a scare about reduced lung capacity, and the scares about a few other things for which I have been scanned and pummeled and viewed sternly.

I would like all the medical guessers to piss off for a while, please.
