Okay all you people with sleep apnea please fill me in ..........

Please fill me in on what it is like to sleep with the noisy monster. Thursday, Jan 2nd, I will have my 2nd sleep study and be fitted with machine and mask etc. I'd love to hear as much as possible. Do you have CPAP or BIPAP and which do you like better, if you have tried both? What type of mask do you have? With or without headgear? I'm especially concerned about having anything strapped across my face because of pressure on my sinuses in cheeks and forehead. It could bring about monsterous sinus headaches. Do you have problems with drying out the nasal passages? Sometimes I'm a big mouth breather - wake up with a really dry throat - will I end up with a mask over my mouth to, or am I likely to adjust once the airway is nice and clear? I'm sure I have tons more questions but this is a start. Any info would be appreciated! Thanks, Chris D.
