Stopping it is bad, but imagine the situation if they had known or suspected something, not stopped the vaccinations and people die from it.

Now they should quickly resume using it. Give people the choice of AstraZeneca now, maybe with more side effects, or mRNA later. If people know the risk they can decide for themselves. Same as any other vaccination.

How would a patient detect bleeding that could be fatal? Or is it just fatal for those who bleed heavily and think it’s fine?

They don’t get to brush their teeth if they are in there for less than a week?

Yes. After the first night, even with using it just a few hours, I felt like a heavy veil was lifted from my brain. No more falling asleep right after work, no more trying to catch up desperately on the weekend. The effects of constant sleep deprivation come gradually, so it’s hard to notice them. But they do come and they bring a lot of long term issues like the risk of accidents, high blood pressure, increased diabetes risk etc. that are much more expensive than the cpap machine.

It took some adjusting for me. In the beginning i would wake up without the mask, check the machine and see that I must have removed it after 2-3 hours (unconsciously). It was a big improvement, but the insurance might not have renewed the therapy with too little hours of use. In that case I was ready to pay for it myself, because there is not much of an alternative. Luckily I was able to adjust so now I get a full nights worth of quality sleep (according to the machine, too). So give yourself some time to adjust if you get a cpap.

You will feel like a knock-off Darth Vader with the mask on, which is very much unsexy. But it’s still worth it. If you can in any way manage to afford it, please do.
