Is it so loud that you can't hear a clock radio set to a reasonable volume?
Is it a whish kind of noise or a rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr kind of noise? Does it
interfere with sleeping on your side? On your stomach? Are there wires/tubes
that get in the way that you can get yourself all tangled up in during the
night? (See's himself pulling the plug out of the wall while rolling over .

I've been a zombie ever since I got off caffeine. I thought maybe I had
blood sugar issues but that tests out fine. Now I'm wondering if maybe I
need to look into this . . .
What is involved in finding out if one of these things will help you? Do you
go to your regular doctor? What kinds of tests do they do?
Sorry for all the questions . . .
