90 seconds is still a LOT isn't it, enough to have very negative effects. I've had very bad sleep since childhood, night terrors/paralysis/waking gasping for air etc, focus/attention problems etc, now I'm wondering if its all related.
That's handy to know cheers, I think so too like anything going to take a while, I'm willing to give it a go though.
I didn't get a choice of a nasal mask (which I would have preferred) but they said they could fit one in time if really couldn't tolerate it as an alternative, I'm quite happy that I've been given/loaned this thing in the first place, its an expensive piece of kit.
Getting used to the straps and how tight need to have it, as it feels a lot depends on the seal, it's amazing the markup on stuff, esp medical stuff.
It's really quite amazing you've been able to come off it, hoping that's a long term thing for you. I'm just starting this journey but "funnily" enough my best friend in all the world going back to childhood got one last year or so, so he's been regaling stories of the benefits and how he too wanted to tear it to shreds at first but he's glad he stuck with it for the improvement on his quality of life. and he was "only" having 30 interruptions per hour, which is bad enough.
I'm not holding out to much hope for it being the weight thing for me (although it might help) cause I think I've had this from when I was a beanpole (with a wide neck) I have a deviated septum but the physiologist said it would be from the neck/throat area, and FAR worse on my back, so I need to stop myself from ending up there, though I don't chose to sleep on my back as I don't like it, they suggested a tennis ball in a shirt which I guess is nice and simple but could see myself throwing it in my sleep

Maybe I'll give it a go though and see.
I'm really glad I phoned yesterday now, maybe the cancellation was a coincidence but it does feel like she saw the numbers and said eek, I was shocked myself, but it all suddenly made sense.
