GURNEE, IL, September 26, 2010 (Press-News.org) Sleep Apnea is a serious medical condition usually treated with CPAP or continuous positive air pressure. Patients are fitted with a mask, hose and compressor and treatment is very effective.
Unfortunately, the majority of patients do not tolerate CPAP. A recent study showed 60% of patients completely quit CPAP and even patients who continue to use it average only 4-5 hours a night not the recommended 7-8 hours a night.
Dr Shapira created I HATE CPAP! LLC and the website http://www.ihatecpap.com to help patients who could not tolerate CPAP. His website has been featured in Bottomline Personal and other local and national media outlets. Thousands of patients visit his site every month in search of a better nights sleep and a better life.
