Well, I have spoken with my lung specialist, and he is happy to know that I am in pursuit of a new type of mask, any minute now. I am happy to know that I am in no rush.

I am doubting the amount of breathing stops that they counted. I was sleeping in a strange place, in a strange room, with the wrong pillows, and no windows. It didn't *feel* like I slept long enough for them to be able to count as many as they say they counted.

I have long since stopped believing that all experts know their bum from their elbow, or care about the people they are experting at. The place that counted my breathing stops is also the place that had a premium machine to sell me. Hmmm.

Currently, my sleep when I use the CPAP is broken and aggravating. My sleep without the CPAP is unbroken and restful. I shall make another effort, but miraculously the place that I will buy the new mask from is the same place that sold me the original gadget. I am not in a position to be running around buying masks that turn out to not be any better.

I do not like having something all over my face.
