I am so sorry about your late husband. I have obviously not been successful in describing my issue. CPAP is not an option - Period. I have spent much sleepless time trying. I disagree with your assessment of the docs. I was made to feel much shame and that there was something wrong with me for not trying it. Thank you all for meaning well -- perhaps there is just something wrong with me. I had hoped for alternative suggestions. Trying to find a way to withdraw from the group. Apologies for bringing my issue here

Has anyone mentioned using a oral appliance to you for treating sleep apnea? When I was first diagnosed I chose to try the appliance. It took getting use to but I didn’t have the mask and machine to deal with. My dr had me do a sleep test with the appliance and it worked great only 2-3 apneas per hour. (I have severe sleep apnea).
Due to some dental problems sadly I’ve had to resort to the C-pap machine. I struggle with it all the time. If I can manage to use it I can tell a difference in my balance, my blood pressure how I think and other things. But even though I know I need to use it I still struggle.
Maybe the oral appliance would help you.
