    You never hear of women complaining about having to use a CPAP machine. Just men.

    They do. Its like autism. For every 5-7 guys that have it, you might have one female with it.

    My wife's apnea was so bad that they were considering using a bipap with an added oxygen supply

    Women don’t get sleep apnea, dandruff, swelling hemorrhoids, overweight, or gas. Women are perfect.
