Dang me! It works!
I was diagnosed with sleep apnea in 2006 and handed a CPAP machine. While I should have traded it in after 2-3 years, I lost my job in 2008 and lost my health insurance. So it lasted 7 years until a couple weeks ago when the machine burst into flames a minute after putting the mask on. Yeah, that scared the you know what out of me.<br />Since then, I have been a walking zombie. Cannot afford a new machine. I am so disoriented it feels like I have dementia.<br />Then a week ago, I tried the Breathe Right strips and it helped. But I had to sleep only on my sides and keep my mouth shut. It helped a bit, but not enough.<br />I did extensive research before buying this Chinstrap. I saw it had good ratings and crossed my fingers.<br />I got it today and needed a nap. I figured out how the contraption works without much stress, strapped on a nasal strip, and went to bed.<br />I slept like the dead.<br />I was able to sleep on my back, my sides, and over under sideways down.<br />I think the nasal strip is an important adjunct to the strap.<br />I am almost too afraid to whisper that it works, but is sure seems to.<br />The real test will be the next few weeks. I have been taking naps (I'm an old f**t) ever since my CPAP did a fireworks show. And I've been waking up more tired than when I lay down. This is the first nap I woke up from and feel rested.<br />I did extensive research before I pulled the trigger on this thing.<br />It works.<br />Check for follow up.
