I need 9 hours of sleep and usually get that.
Oh, you are lucky to get 9 hours of virtually uninterrupted sleep, save for getting up to pee. I understand how, having reached this happy state, you do not want any changes. And with mild sleep apnea, the first recommendation probably would have been a mandibular device anyway, and you already have it.
