Is CPAP Machine Advisable For Borderline Sleep Apnea?

I have been trying out a CPAP machine since Wednesday. Not going so well. I was told I have borderline sleep apnea. My family Doctor told me he didnt think a CPAP machine would work for me because I am borderline sleep apnea. Why would my Doctor feel it wouldnt work for me?

Thanks for contacting at my Virtual clinic. I understand your health issues.
I think it will work for u if you dont have some other issues like Obesity, some ENT issues or other risk factors. In my opinion U should keep using it. It will work for u.
Dont forget to give feedback to better assist u in future.
