This is a self-help book. OSA or obstructive sleeping apnea is experienced by over 22 million people today if not more since many never report their sleep disorders. This writing is detailed with information that puts the entire process at your fingertips. Excellent source of information for spouses, family members and friends who know someone who has OSA. Some would say that choosing between a sleeping partner and a CPAP machine is pure hell. I agree and if the partner is annoyed or dissatisfied with the machine in the bedroom, your choices are limited. Remaining in compliance with CPAP therapy is also rigorous and demanding. There are no exceptions to the directions, instructions or even the not-so-delightful feeling of wearing a mask for 5 to 9 hours a day. On the other hand, if your partner is sensitive, and encouraged you to get a sleep study done and if CPAP therapy is recommended, the relationship will be better than the other way around. This book gives you the ‘pros and cons’ of wearing the CPAP mask and all that is relevant to its issuance, use, care, fittings, problems (both equipment wise and personal behaviors) and much more. A lot of information for those unfamiliar with the CPAP process. A powerful book of information – you won’t regret reading this and if you are already wearing the mask, you know what kind of hell is associated with getting one, wearing one and taking care of one as you deal with the side-effects of such a device on your face.
