Getting a New Sleep Study
I know I haven't been around much lately, but it's been for a good reason. I finally have a new GP/DO, and I've been having a lot of appointments with him, to get me on the right track where my health is concerned. I told him that I've not had any real improvements with my therapy for three years. ...

Re: denture sores
I don't sleep with mine in. It will make your mouth really sore. Try sleeping without them and see how you do. I really don't think you'd need to change masks, of course unless you really want to. Let us know how things go.

Re: cpap machine
Welcome to the Forum Alltired. You may need your pressure changed. I would call the DME and or your Sleep Dr. and talk with one of them about your trouble having to work harder at forcing the air out. Also, it would be really great, if you could go to your profile, and fill out your machine, mask, ...

Re: A Few More Questions
Just a suggestion, but, maybe one of the gel nasal masks maybe something to try. It doesn't cover your whole face like a ffm does, but it does cover all of your nose. I used one for 2 1/2 years, and found it to be very comfortable. It still had it's leak issues, but like you I was getting major hea...

Re: need to see a sleep doctor often?
I realized the moment I was told I had OSA, I'd be on this machine the rest of my life, but hey, I can think of worse things to have to deal with than this, so I consider myself a very lucky girl. And glad that I'm "hooked" on this machine, I can't imagine sleeping without it.

Hi JM, and Welcome. Glad you found us before you go for your studies. You've already gotten some sound advice from BB, and if it were me, I'd follow her advice. I wish I had found this forum three years ago, and be armed with a great deal knowledge before I had my study done. It might have made a h...

Hi Ched, and Welcome to the forum. Congrat's on the new machine. Like BB said, we can all relate where you are now.
