Apnea update

Well, after being on the CPAP machine and multiple antihistamines/decongestants for about three months, I can safely say that I'm sleeping better. No snoring, and very vivid dreams when I use the machine. However, the septum of my nose is sufficiently deviated that even the drugs can't open the nasal passages sufficiently, and so I end of taking off the mask in the middle of the night sometimes. So now the doc wants to fix my septum.

Sigh.

Hopefully the surgery will go well and you won't need the machine anymore (which will make it less of a problem if you fall asleep w/out the machine).

I'll take care of you.
