Out of curiosity, in which ways did your life change? How did you adjust or what do you do differently now that you know?



I never notice when my comments are replied to! Sorry for the delay:

The biggest change is that I used to get migraines from lack of sleep (even while sleeping 8-10 hours plus occasional naps). Now I can get 6 a night continuously and be more alert. But most importantly my quality of life improved drammatically on account of having probably 30 hours a week of migraine-hours removed.

I still occasionally get lack-of-sleep-migraines, but they are rare, and are usually well deserved (I have three children, a puppy, and an unwillingness to give up 'alone time' in order to sleep enough. It's a bad combination).


For what it is worth, I had a neighbor who was so exhausted he retired. THEN he got a CPAP machine and felt so amazing he'd wished he'd kept working.
