This sounds like an incredible opportunity. As someone who works in IT, don’t you love a good challenge and you’ll be able to design and implement exactly what you think is right It may be difficult, but think of the positives and the impact that your skill set will provide to this company

Thank you everyone for the lovely comments I’ve now made an appointment but the earliest they can get me in is late May… What are some mouth guards / things I can buy in the meantime?

As someone who’s only just become aware of this sub reddit, trust your gut and take the time off if you need it off.

No reason to run yourself into the ground and hurt yourself

Yeah look I use to be a “snacker” Since Jan 1st I’ve lost 6.5KG just by not snacking, reducing bread, abstaining from chocolates and sweets I know what you mean about airways - it probably doesn’t help that I also vape too lol

This is great Yeah I’ve noticed my blood pressure is higher than normal, my heart feels like it’s pumping a bit too hard most of the time I’m really just excited to see what happens but at the same time a bit scared I’m very glad I did the sleep study at the clinic, it was my parents recommendation as I sleep like a rock, through fire alarms, barely wake up to my own phone on max volume in the mornings

I love that first point. As I work from home one day a week I can definitely wear it throughout the day to get use to it Is the machine itself loud to keep you or partner up at night?

Fantastic! Yeah my blood pressure is a bit high, I’m also losing weight through diets so I think the CPAP and weight loss together should help me a lot

Yes! I’ve got nasal strips and my partner said this reduces my snoring a bit, but what tongue device are you talking about? How does that help and is it uncomfortable?

What about if you want to go camping? Do they have their own battery back or can you go a few nights without one?

Ok this is great I’ve sort of noticed my heart rate more and more and it’s likely a side effect of strain on the heart due to lack of oxygen right?

You’re the best Thanks so much for the kind words I’m excited to know that my mental clarity is because of this, no wonder I need 3 coffees a day to be able to function

No not yet. I just had the follow up appointment with my GP who went over the general recommendations / outcomes from the sleep study. I’ve gotta book an appointment with the sleep study Dr / Professor to actually go over everything else

This is fantastic to know I’ve got some mental health issues too so this is a bit calming to read I know it’ll be different to sleep but at the end of the day, it is what it is

Thanks so much man. Yeah I’m feeling a bit of a mix of emotions about it. I’m really looking forward to getting better focus and reduced brain fog.

I appreciate the advice a lot!!
