First night with only 50% compliance

First night with only 50% compliance
Since the 1st night (9-09-18) of using a CPAP, it's been pretty much a cake walk for me. Wasn't sure what to expect, but it's been a whole lot easier than I would have ever imagined. 

My wife left for MT. several days ago, as her mother passed. I'm a bachelor for another two weeks or so. I went to bed last night and geared up for sleep. 

I woke up during the night and had to go to the bathroom. That was about 4 am or so. When I returned to bed, I decided to not put my mask back on. I just didn't feel like it. Beings that my wife was not here, I know my snoring would bother no one. 

Not sure of why the decision to do so. I'm hoping that it was just a one time event. I'm now feeling a bit guilty. According to my machine, I used it only 4.5 hrs. last night. My AHI was 0.6

It's gonna be a gorgeous day today. Think I'll get a good m/c ride in and mull it over. Lunch on the road and a couple hundred miles covered does wonders for the spirit.  Cool

It was only one time, don’t obsess over it. You were probably trying to see what you could get away with without your wife around. Big Grin

Enjoy your day!

There are certainly worse things you could have done while your wife was away! Now back to full nights!
