| I too was diagnosed with sleep apnea. well the tests were largly inconclusive because all those wires they hook you up to were so uncomfortable that they didn't get to start recording any usefull data until about 3am and I was to be outta there by 6am. the tech kept coming in and telling me to "quit moving around and go to sleep" I just growled at him. sleep for me has always been a battle that I eventully sucomb to. It generally takes me 30-45 minutes to even get to sleep once I lay down.
the doctor told me I had 2 options a cast plastic mouth piece or a gas mask type face mask which I would never get to sleep in. I tried the mouth piece for a few weeks, but its just so uncomfortable it takes me even longer to get to sleep! so I feel your pain.
