Unfortunately, I never got used to my machine. It would develop a leak right by my eye blowing into my eye. I tried different masks and finally gave up.
Good luck with the machine!

I guess I fit right in. I was diagnosed with sleep apnea a few years ago. On average, an episode every 5 minutes...really sucks!!!
The CPAP didn't work for me either, also tried a few different masks. Learning to deal with it for now. But, I think I will revisit the medical community soon to see if there are any other options.
Anyway, regarding the hot tub...no worries for me. I don't seem to even begin to get sleepy in the tub. I guess I'm too busy star gazing...or something like that ;)

I, too, suffer from sleep apnea. I use a CPAP machine every night. Also have an oxygen machine joined into it. Helps me rest a lot better. The masks have changed a lot every year, and the latest one isn't even a mask; just a pad that rests against the nostrils and blows air in. It would be nice not to be hooked up to anything, but advances have come a long way.
I don't find using my hot tub any different than driving. And I certainly don't worry about using my hot tub alone any more than I worry about driving alone.

Well im going outside to use my spa ;) This will be the first time ive used it in quite a while . The air temp is cool but not to cold so it should be nice.

I've had mine 3 years and never got use to the #$%$ thing. I finally decided on a surgical option. And Vinny, I've been through 4 of those sleep tests and I would rather have a root canal than ever do another one.
