First-hand experience here to the benefits of CPAP (actually Bi-Pap) therapy.

Snored badly, had acid reflux, restless legs, borderline high BP, weight gain, daytime sleepiness to the point of nearly falling asleep driving home. For 15 years at least.

Wife convinced me to do a sleep study. I was stopping breathing 97 times an hour for more than 10 seconds. That got my attention–I didn’t want to end up like former Green Bay Packer Reggie White, who died from sleep apnea. Got a BiPap machine (dual levels of airflow, more on the take, less on the out-breath) in short order. Took about 6 months to really get used to it, but now it’s part of my life and every symptom above is gone, maybe except for the weight (I love food), but I haven’t gained at least.

It’s worth it, it’s worth it…
