Agreed. But a CPAP is only as a good as your usage, too many people "have" one but don't use it.
A lot of it is comfort. So try switching from a full-face to nose pillow-style mask. Or alternative headgear. Or even talk to your doctor about lowering the pressure if it is the noise (better to have less effective treatment, than none at all).
PS - A lot of, frankly, older doctors are still not prescribing Auto-CPAPs for people who may be suitable. If you're currently set on a fixed pressure, and your machine is a common Auto-CPAP (variable pressure) maybe seek a second opinion from a different (younger?) doctor. Auto-CPAPs are medically certified for many Sleep Apnea suffers, doctors just haven't adapted or haven't been re-trained, so they're chronically under-prescribed. Auto-CPAP improves your comfort, not your treatment, which improves adherence.
