Hi, First post on here and wanting get going with a CPAP machine.

My insurance is great, it’s a catastrophic meaning I have a high deductible and have pay for medical out of pocket unless a major bill occurs. It keeps me more aware of what is charged at a medical provider.

I’ve taken online tests and they say sleep apnea. What’s to keep me from buying a used CPAP machine and just giving it a whirl?

Do I need to spend $400 for a test, when that money could go to the device?

What machines and masks are recommended effectiveness, quality and price?

Any downside from buying one used?

Thanks!
