Just like to add that when i was at L&D yesterday at my 1st appointment,I did the Epworth Sleepiness Scale test...It was just 'for the record' as i have already been diagnosed with OSA.

The score BEFORE i was diagnosed was 22

The score yesterday( bearing in mind i have been on CPAP for 5 months) was.... 5

CPAP has possibly saved my life...Please please get it checked out if you're in any doubt.
