Hi, I'm new here and I see that many people have the same problems with sleep apnea that plagued me, I would panic when putting on the mask and ripping it off in the night, not good. After a little accidental research My apnea is GONE. While looking for Australian news, there was a reference to apnea treatment and the didgeridoo, the funny sounding instrument played by native Australians. Following up on the reference there is a treatment for apnea that works! There was an article by a Swiss MD, an informative video from the AU medical service, and several on YOUTUBE. To make a long story short I played the digeridoo for about 3 months and asked for a retest of my apnea and I was found to be marginal, the tech did not find a symptom they could treat, and the apnea mask went into the back of the closet. Yeah!!!

ONE NOTE I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE CIRCULAR BREATHING AS STATED IN THE VIDEO FROM THE MD. INSTEAD I USED A PERCUSSIVE STYLE ( PUFF, PUFF ETC) THAT WORKED FOR ME.

The didgeridoo is inexpensive and easy to play. There are lesson books and CDs. I play mine for 20 minutes per day while having my coffee and reading news on the web.
