Advice & Tips
I tried this for a long time but it made falling asleep more difficult and even if I did use it for the full time I was sleeping, I didn't notice a change in my fatigue levels. I believe that my fatigue is mostly due to my Multiple Sclerosis so unfortunately the C-Pap had no effect for me.

Advice & Tips
This treatment was working, but wasn't what I needed, I needed the bi-pap. I did notice marked improvement in my daytime patterns just in using the c-pap. I wasn't 'as' tired, falling asleep as much in the daytime. I seemed more rested, especially when I got up. I was able to begin doing little things around the house again that I couldn't before because I was getting some energy back. It was a good thing.
