APAP

My nose hurts it's 2:00 am And I fucking do not sleep on my back. I don't have high blood pressure. My lungs hurt from constant air blowing and inflating my cheeks.

Sorry to hear that it is not going well for you yet. Perhaps you could tell us what machine you are using, what pressure settings, and which mask. Then tell us what problems you are having so that we can help you make it more comfortable.

Who would have thought it would be this challenging to sleep and breathe at the same time?

Switch positions and use a different type of mask
