CPAP - for life

Hi, I'm Christina (Chris), I've had sleep apnoea since 2006 , was discovered when I had to transfer to a new respiratory consultant in Birmingham (I live in Gloucester area). Spent a day up there having multiple tests & was diagnosed with it. Was then transferred back to local hospital to get a machine calibrated for me. I try to have a healthy, normal lifestyle as much as possible considering all my other conditions

My husband uses Cpap, it saved our marriage. His very loud snoring was keeping me awake all night.

Good for you, congrats on finding some answer that works for you. I noticed your "ILovebunnies"...If you look under my avatar to recent posts you'll see one that says "so cute"...etc etc. It's a cute bunny that came to my door...I think I must have fed her carrots last year...she has a familiar stance. Hugs, Love, and Blessings...

That's lovely, was it a baby bunny ? I've got a ' lodger ' in my garden, appeared last year & presume he (I think), hibernated in his little house because I saw him coming out the other night when I was getting his food ready . I have been adopted by a hedgehog! Chris

No, this is a full grown cottontail, they aren't big. They live and reproduce annually (at least, how the heck do I know if it's more often?) babies primarily seen in spring, along with the marsh rabbits who are brown and much bigger. Apparently they all get along! Congrats on the hedgehog! We don't have those.
