I have been sleeping with my c-pap machine for two days.  It will take a few weeks to adjust to it, but so far so good.  I chose a "pillow" that fits under my nose and above my upper lip with two buds pointing up into my nostrils.  It has a built in heated humidifier.  I don't feel like Darth Vader, but it is interesting sleeping in it.  Yesterday, I woke up sleepy but relaxed.  Have not been relaxed in a long time.  Today, it was not quite as nice.  My son went to his granny's and my husband went geocaching, so I napped until about 1:30.  Not sure why, but maybe I am just playing catch up.
Here's hoping it helps, and I adjust.  The second sleep study showed that it reduced my holding my breath from 24-30 plus times per hour to 1.  : )
