So you're using it for a different reason than apnea?
Funny you should say that about the carbs. I decided to jump back on the Atkins wagon when I got back from New York (March 9). I do feel like I've been sleeping better, and I've needed the Provigil less (though there are still days when it's a lifesaver). I wasn't sure if it was just feeling better from longer days and more light, or dropping the carbs, or what. I'd say it was a chicken-and-egg problem, but having a biologist around solved that years ago (the egg, incidentally).
Part of my dismay at the prescription of a CPAP is that it's supposed to be a lifelong therapy, and the thought of being a "hosehead" for the rest of my life just feels a little... hard to be happy about.

I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better!
