But is there a way to get a cpap machine without the test?


You need a prescription to buy a new machine. You can get a used one off Facebook marketplace.

The online supply vendors will send you a home test kit then based on the results have a doctor write the prescription,

Idk I’ve kinda given up on it. Maybe I’ll see a dead person one at a garage sale or something. I think suffering is a part of getting older

I think sleep study is going to be a big factor in determining your root issue. I know people in much better physical shape than me that were diagnose, started CPAP, and says it has been life changing.

I googled “symptoms of too much caffeine” and much of your OP was in the search results. Just an FYI.

Or your body is finally shutting down to the prolonged consumption of caffeine. Plus age will play a factor I’m sure. What we drank and ate at 30 is much different than 40.

You could be right about that, certainly makes sense that at some point your body is just like "no more"

last summer i started doing some farm work for the first time in years. i quickly spun up to drinking 2 gallons of water before noon with electrolytes (redmonds). immediately my sleep improved. i now think i was dehydrated for 30 years and never knew it (im 45). i love coffee and can easily drink a pot on my own before 8am.

i now keep one gallon of water at my desk and one gallon in my vehicle. drink ~1.5 gallons/day. i splurged and bought 2 yeti gallons. however algae will grow in em so has to be washed every few weeks. If i did it again id try to find copper

i bought an expensive eyeshade (manta), a chili pad for the mattress, paper tape for my mouth so i breathe through my nose, and wear foam earplugs every night. i recommend all of these but more water is #1

also i get up appx 430am every day, and take a 15 minute nap most early afternoons. close the door and knock it out

as i heard on some podcast, "become a professional sleeper"

Eat steak, grass fed beef, chicken, fish, blueberries, blackberries, or raspberries, drink a couple of whey isolate shakes a day, get 8 hours of sleep, train hard with heavy weights and get 10,000 steps a day and drink 3 to 4 liters of water a day throughout the day. Be active. Cut out all processed foods. It’s actually easy once you start doing this.

You’re not going to sleep in a cage and there will be no college kids taunting you.
It’s done by a certified sleep technician in a separate little room monitoring you.
