... I had that week or two in May when I was waking up daily feeling very refreshed. The only thing that happened since then is I started getting aerophagia and then the pressures went out of wack. I attached my sleep study results (using 3% oxi desaturation) as I figured that is more sensitive ...

... this thread on ApneaBoard and didn't get much help so I was hoping that you guys might be able to steer me in the right direction. I haven't had Aerophagia in a few days since turning on EPR to 1 and updating pressures to 8.6-11.4 cm (after I had aero, I tried EPR 3 and 2 on 7-11.4 cm). ---------------------------- ...

Hi, I was hoping someone could help with my current cpap issue relating again to nasal dryness. I had been using the Phillips Nuance Pro mask with good success up until about 6 weeks ago when it was time to change my mask. I then found out that mask had been discontinued, so decided to opt for the D...

I got an AirMini with F20 kit from Lofta only 1 month ago and after only 9 hours of use (several short attempts), can't handle the resulting aerophagia. I'm going to stick to a MAD since this clearly isn't the right solution for my mild OSA. So.... I have a very lightly used AirMini (total of ...

... most nights, would it help to raise the max to 13.0 to give the machine more room to work? Or could that trigger more arousals or discomfort like aerophagia? Should I raise the minimum pressure a bit (to 11.4 or 11.6) to improve stability? Any ideas on how to further reduce RERAs and arousals ...

True. But it will stop my severe aerophagia from mouth breathing.

My bed is adjustable and I had the head raised to about 30 degrees. I will crank it up more.

Thanks for your response

... “no cpap” guidance. So last night i used mouth tape and no cpap. I can breath through my nose fine but am a big mouth breather and suffer a lot of aerophagia w/out tape. But according to the iPhone app ‘Sleep Cycle’ which records skeep sounds and records sleep talking, snoring, etc. I had 70 nasal ...

Hey everyone, I have been using CPAP for 4 months now with AHI < 1 for most nights, trying different pressure ranges (above 11-12 I get aerophagia) and EPR settings (0-3) but still tired af and brain fog during the day. I was suspecting UARS and after much effort I convinced my doctor to try ...

I have been doing Myofunctional therapy for my tongue posture, jaw strength, and lip seal. It has already helped after only 1 week. I am doing exercises every day. I have also been doing the Einstein Method, which is gradual tongue strengthening over a 4-month period. Anyone find that tongue exercis...

... what's next? I've visibly seen my higher IPAP smooth out my waveform but for the life of me I'm already up to 14 and it's starting to get funky, aerophagia and obvious CA's from the large pressure support (though I've hesitant to raise EPAP up as it seems to cover all my OA's and I struggle exhaling ...

... of supplies and the DME is in contact. Can you take a look at my latest OSCAR report and suggest if I keep on keepin on or make adjustments. Aerophagia is pretty extreme. https://imgur.com/a/QI5YsBN https://imgur.com/a/QI5YsBN

... if I reduce PS too much then the uncomfortable aerophagia kicks back in?

Are you asking me or telling me?

Not enough info, but IMO-WAG anything relating to xPAP is fine, it's your sleep that's AFU.

Post any available sleep studies you have.

... PS of 4.4) but my AHI went back up to 6.43. Clear airways seem like they are dominating, however if I reduce PS too much then the uncomfortable aerophagia kicks back in? At the very least I got 7+ hours of sleep last night.

... also been difficult for me to sleep a full night uninterrupted for months now (I probably should have posted earlier). I have been dealing with aerophagia and although I use a chinstrap and mouth tape I keep burping which may be causing the leaks shown in my chart. I do try using a wedge pillow ...

... possible. My charts all look relatively "the same". I did go back to my near 8-12 range in the hopes it would help - it did not. I still get aerophagia above 12. I really don't know what to do. I'm going to try the ambien when I don't have a workday in front of me - not long term, we're just ...
