[QUOTE="ConstitutionCowboy, post: 2911137, member: 745"] Thanks to all for the info. I had a "sleep study" about 15 years ago but didn't 'qualify' for a CPAP. I could not fall asleep long enough or deep enough for what I would call an effective study. Sometimes I would wake myself with a gigantic gasp for air with a snort that would scatter the cattle, so I decided to get a snore guard fitted at the dentist and I did notice a marked improvement in my sleep quality and quantity. My snoring stopped. I no longer felt the need for an afternoon nap, and didn't have to fight to stay awake. Older now, and heavier, and with the snore guard wearing out and not holding my lower jaw out where it belongs, I'm slipping backward with sleep and beginning to have difficulty staying awake in the afternoon. The cost of a good snore guard is now more than quadruple what I originally paid, and most of the prices on a CPAP machine are compatible with what I originally spent for that snore guard. This has prompted me to look into a CPAP machine. I don't believe I have a neurological - CLICK - neurological - CLICK - neurological - CLICK - neurological - CLICK - neurological - CLICK - problem, though, so I'm willing to try out a CPAP machine.
