Re: One year in and I still feel horrible

I think I'm one of those to whom the mask itself causes microarousals. It seems only when I am severely exhausted to I have any benefit. The rest of the time I either can't fall asleep or I spend seven hours in a light sleep. It's just a miserable existence, fighting fatigue.

Re: Why aren't feeling better with CPAP?

Or not. You may find yourself 3 years later still wiped out every day, even with an AHI of 1. Hey, it happens.

Re: Woke up for the first time today without a big headache

I wish I would have taken this route before throwing it all into "the gold standard". I thought you said you were gonna' throw yourself off a cliff..................... Never said that. Have you been diagnosed with dementia? No, I haven't. I guess I must have taken it from the context of your inces...

Re: Woke up for the first time today without a big headache

I just got out of the hospital a day or two ago. The doctors performed UPPP surgery as well as turbinate reduction. I was told that it would be extremely painful and it sure was coming out of the Anesthesia. But I already noticed within the first 5 minutes that my breathing was about 3 to 5 times d...

Re: Can people genuinely fail to tolerate CPAP?

well, it *IS* all you've ever done here... go with what you're good at, I suppose. Well, if you define "is" as purchasing another cpap, buying a laptop to use "sleepyhead", posting dozens of "sleepyhead" screenshots, getting blood work done, moving the pressure up; moving the pressure down; EPR on,...

Re: Thinking about those with good AHIs who still feel lousy

I'm two years in and still feel lousy. Bought a "data capable" machine, bought a laptop so I could use "sleepyhead", posted many screenshots of "sleepyhead", adjusted pressure up, adjusted pressure down, EPR on, EPR off, blood work for D, thyroid and testosterone (all normal). I still awaken feelin...

Re: Thinking about those with good AHIs who still feel lousy

Hi, wanted to see how others feel here - please don't re-post already replied-to notes re fatigue, etc. - I'm just wondering in general about this... Could there be a subset of people who find that while Cpap has done a good job (as seen on e.g. Sleepyhead) of addressing their apnea, still don't fe...

Re: Still so sleepy even with full use

I am on about month number 3 or 4 I believe and while things were better at first Im noticing in the last few weeks I am waking up SO sleepy. I dont know why. I cant ever seem to pass the 6 hour mark but I do keep my mask on all night now. Why am I so tired? Im getting frustrated that I'm feeling v...
