I had a bout of apnea, when I was single and did not have a regular sleeptime companion to alert me to it. Tried CPAP - but it is HORRIBLE. Hearing my complaints, the therapist suggested that instead I get a dental appliance - a very simple one - custom-made, but not complex to make.

All it does is jut out your lower jaw a bit, opening up your windpipe (or whatever it is that's getting stopped up). IT WORKED GREAT! To hell with CPAP. And now that I'm married, I have a full-time Apnea Alerter (TM).
