I am so tired all the time. I wake up tired and go to bed tired. If I stay still to long I run the risk of falling asleep. I mean by that if I'm not doing something if I'm just watching T.V. or sitting still waiting for something like waiting in a doctor's office not like driving or anything.

I wear my CPAP mask religiously and also my oxygen at night and have discussed this with my sleep doc and he has adjusted the level in my CPAP but it hasn't changed anything. I am sick and tired and being tired all the time.

I don't drink caffiene to the excess anymore and am wondering if that is the cause of it. I used to drink heavy loads of Diet Mt. Dew and now only drink about 3 Diet Dr. Peppers a day. I used to drink about 6 of the Dt Dew's a day. I don't really want to up my caffiene intake but if that is what it's going to take to wake me up. My pdoc told me his office is going to try Pepsi Max as one of the soda's they offer...I teased him by saying you want your clients bouncing off the walls even more huh? He laughed.

I am thinking about calling his office tomorrow and seeing about getting off another sleeping med and seeing if maybe that is the problem maybe I'm taking too many meds that cause sleepiness.
