Post Tonight is night 3 with CPAP at home...do you think... 
Tonight will be my 3rd night on the CPAP at home.  They didn't give the the good machine with all the data screens, so I can only tell how many hours it says it has been used...It is saying 7.1hrs, but that is for 2 nights...I have been using it and taking it off during the night, because it wakes me up...I think it is the pressure blowing in my face...After a couple of times waking up I get frustrated and take it off...

I think tonight I will try to just hit the ramp button and fall back asleep instead of taking it off...but I don't like how it wakes me up...I don't notice when I wake up during nonCPAP sleep, so I am very annoyed...

be patient, it usually takes many weeks or months to get fully used to a CPAP

Stick with it...you will get use to it..it is worth the wait...it took me nearly 3 months to get use to it..and probably the same amount of time to feel a real difference.  It has been 10 months since i started treatment, and i would not sleep a night without it...and actually..i have not slept 1 night without since starting..100% compliance...it was hard..and i still kinda hate it..but i know it is better than what I was feeling before...good luck.
