For reasons which I don't care to discuss at the moment, I have no CPAP. And because the medical establishment is designed to make people's lives a misery, I can't just go out and buy one from a legit source. I have to, you know, go to a follow-up to be told that I have sleep apnea, a thing I've known for 20 years, and have the results of a study done two and a half years ago, results which I have read and understood, explained to me, at which point I can pay for one out of pocket, because my insurance doesn't cover durable medical equipment until after I meet my $3500 deductible.

Meanwhile, I am sleeping like fucking crap. Seriously. I feel horrible. Also, it's affecting other bodily systems, such as digestion. Which is unsurprising. I _know_ what sleep apnea does.

So, I'll probably go through the various medical hoops, but it's going to take a week or two, minimum. Does anyone have a machine they're not using that they'd be willing to lend or sell? Because I covet sleep like a drowning man covets air, or a starving man covets bread.

Oh, and yes, I've tried Craigslist. I've sent two messages to someone who looks to have a machine for sale, but they haven't responded to either.

Dear sweet god on a stick, how I need to sleep.
