I am really confused How do I know if I am getting the right pressure from my machine? I am finding that I am still getting up in the morning very tired and grumpy. After about a 5 day period I have to sleep on and off during a one day period without my CPap to 'catch up' on what feels like lost sle...

Thanks meister for the information on how often I can use the Nasonex Spray. I didn't want to do something to make my nose even worse. I will certainly try the spray in the morning also. I have to get some relief from this awful congestion and sneezing.
Take Care,

I think that the system has been 'poor' in my case. I have had 3 sleep studies, one in the late 80's, the 2nd in the mid 90's, and the 3rd Jan/05. My doctors have all agreed that I have a sleep disorder but they just did not know what treatment I needed. The first 2 studies I was told that 'I never ...

This question about the RemStar with C-Flex was very interesting to me. I have that machine and was wondering if the card was monitoring my sleep apneas and how well I was sleeping. See on the top of the machine how many hours I have used it during a total of all nights. Now I know that the total of...

I have used both Flonase and Nasacort for my stuffiness. They both work about the same for me. I am good to go when I use it before I go to bed but I am having the stuffiness return in the morning. Wonder if it would hurt me to use it in the morning also? My prescription says once a day, at night, b...

A picnic to meet other people with this strange looking head gear for sleeping would be fun! Trade stories about sleepin' with a machine hooked up to our heads......whoa we might make 'DateLine' on TV, huh? They air stories about many different things. Oh by the way, I make some killer baked beans. ...

Geeze!! I finally read posts back far enough to find my exact symptoms of sneezing, runny nose, and congestion. This occurs only during the daytime. I have had enough of constantly feeling like I have a cold. I am going to see my Ear, Nose, and Throat Doctor. This started at the exact same time I st...

I had a sleep study done 1/4/05. I had a total of 6 hours and 55 minutes of recorded time with a sleep time of 3 hours and 29 minutes. I have trouble falling asleep. Half of my test time was spent trying to go to sleep. My report says that there was a total of 131 arousals occuring at a rate of 37.6...

I am just begining to use a nasal mask. It is a FlexiFit HC407A nasal mask. It is much better for me than the pillow nasal mask. The nasal mask is staying in place much better. I tried the pillow nasal mask and it would not stay in place for me. I would move or turn over and it would move to the sid...

I went for my return visit to my Doc after having my CPap for a month and having a terrible time with the congestion of my sinuses. He told me that if there was another alternative to CPap he would try it for me but unfortunately there was no better alternative. He also told me that surgery on movin...

I am a new user of the CPap machine . Just a month now. I am having a terrible time during the day after use of the CPap at night. When I awaken in the morning and remove the mask my head immediately becomes congested, I begin sneezing, and then after a while my nose starts to run. This goes on all ...
