Re: First month on CPAP and could use some help with dialing in my pressure and settings

... especially if you had the dizziness prior to starting cpap therapy. True, only limited studies have found links between apnea and dizziness / vestibular migraines etc. - but I found that when I slept nearly sitting up, my vestibular symptoms were tremendously reduced. It lead me to get a sleep ...

Re: First month on CPAP and could use some help with dialing in my pressure and settings

About dizziness: I learned by experience that there can be significant benefits from vestibular physical therapy. I was hoping it would work - spent about 5 months with two different therapists respectively but didn't see a ton of improvement. I'm now increasing my ...

... was absolutely exhausted all day. Since then, have only had a day or two like that. I do take Nortriptyline (30mg) for what has been diagnosed as vestibular migraines, but after visits with ENTs and neurologists, I'm exploring other causes (eyes, neck, heart and thyroid) That's some good feedback ...

Re: First month on CPAP and could use some help with dialing in my pressure and settings

... case you first have to figure out what is causing the pressure to need to go up. All great questions. I'd love it if apnea was the cause of my vestibular/ dizziness issues and treatment would clear that up - but other than that it's just brain fog, memory and low energy. Would love to feel ...

First month on CPAP and could use some help with dialing in my pressure and settings

... when I wake up, generally for a few hours. Still waiting for some improvements in my brain fog / memory and dizziness, but that also could be a vestibular issue i am trying to solve. It seems like my pressure tops out in the 9-12 range - so will I experience better sleep / results if I drop ...

Re: CPAP causing vertigo symptoms??

... dizziness (both the room spinning kind and the feeling off balance kind). My ENT couldn't find anything wrong with my earsl. He even sent me for vestibular testing and later a brain MRI.

Re: A CRY FOR HELP, Is this only sleep apnea

... about going to a neurologist. I have been having balance issues for several months. I went the ENT. He couldn't find anything. So he sent me for vestibular testing.

Re: Do symptoms disappear right away?

One of the last tests was a sleep study, which found I have sleep apnea with an AHI of 20. I was hoping that all these symptoms ...
