On my 8th month with my cpap and, as I've mentioned before, it was a process of anger, denial, acceptance, months of struggling to get adjusted, working out kinks and little problems - with the help of this community and very little support from my "doctor." I've fallen in love with my cpap, traveled abroad with my machine (and my new "magic" PAPillow) and can't imagine a night without it now. Three nights ago, experienced my first power outage. Woke up struggling for air, panicked and the power stayed out until the morning. "Woke up" feeling like my old miserable self pre-Cpap and remembered how insufferable life was before. Two things: 1. Newbies, hang in there! 2. How do others out there handle the possibility of a power outage. Are there battery backups or something I should know about for cpap machines?
