So I got my sleep study results back after a fair wait. Yeah it turns out that not breathing might be the reason for the fatigue. Off to dig into savings and go CPAP shopping I think (#thuglife)

I am low key excited - maybe I can function like a real person finally. Any tips from anyone else in the mask club?

If you have any annoyances that can be solved with 3d printed parts, hmu. Mate of mine had me make him a custom bendy thing for his hose 'cos it kept snagging on his bespoke nightstand

Have you got health insurance?

Check your extras cover. Many funds will reimburse you part of the cost for a CPAP machine. I know the one I work for will.

Nah. I keep a little emergency fund instead so that's ok. At this point I would pay anything if it solved my issues
