It's like a balm to my bruised ego.<br /><br />I've never had a CPAP with a humidifier. I might benefit from one. Sometimes, especially during the winter, when the air is very dry I'll wake up feeling like somebody is running a bottle brush through my sinuses.mikespeirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05397674737999065117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882218549493175550.post-3834741781268922602009-10-14T08:22:27.689-04:002009-10-14T08:22:27.689-04:00You're not supposed to say you broke your nose...You're not supposed to say you broke your nose as a kid, you're supposed to come up with an awesome story involving ninjas, spies, and gorgeous nymphomaniacs that results in a broken nose.<br /><br />Hope everything works out with you and your muppet.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02446398968548702039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882218549493175550.post-52718857853864793132009-10-14T07:58:22.458-04:002009-10-14T07:58:22.458-04:00Grammatical error? What grammatical error? Clearly...Grammatical error? What grammatical error? Clearly you misread.<br /><br />(Thanks for catching it. I try to be careful about that stuff.)<br /><br />My first night with the thing was not exactly an unmitigated success. I ended up peeling it off around 3am. I think there are spots on my face that need to get used to having something on them.<br /><br />This model has a built-in humidifier which is supposed to minimize the drying out. It'll take some time to adjust to the right level -- until then I will alternate between having a hand dryer up my nose and putting my sinuses in the rinse cycle.<br /><br />I'm not really worried about smothering myself. After some experimentation, I feel the pressure will break the seal before it blows my sinuses out the back of my head.<br /><br />And Maria stopped laughing when she realized I was going to be cranky without enough sleep :)Christian Waltershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12440318861442751133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882218549493175550.post-36796386593216724242009-10-14T06:26:06.688-04:002009-10-14T06:26:06.688-04:00I use one of the things, too.

You get used to it, sort of.<br /><br />As to the stuffy nose thing, I think you'll find that the machine tends to dry you up (might take a while) so that it's not much of a problem. Every once in a while sneezing is a problem, though it hasn't been common for me.<br /><br />Funny post, as usual. One itty-bitty problem:<br /><br />"Me: It has, as has many of my normal brain functions and sensory perceptions."<br /><br />I think that should be "...as HAVE many of my...." On the other hand, the sentence itself goes a long way toward explaining the error.mikespeirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05397674737999065117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882218549493175550.post-26870202158366065302009-10-13T22:52:44.257-04:002009-10-13T22:52:44.257-04:00Oh, jeez.

In spite of ...Oh, jeez. I'm sorry to hear this.<br />In spite of your always spot-on humor, this is a real pain in the ass. Can we not just pass Go and (not) collect 200$ already?<br /><br />I will be interested to hear how the CPAP works for you. I know it's uncomfortable and only semi-effective for dad.fwaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07049145503156649549noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882218549493175550.post-66865870117691908822009-10-13T21:25:58.265-04:002009-10-13T21:25:58.265-04:00Has Maria stopped laughing yet?Has Maria stopped laughing yet?Artful Dodgerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04648424630174405282noreply@blogger.com
