Follow up- APAP

Post by Tahera11979 » Mon Apr 24, 2017 8:08 pm

Hi all,

I couldn't find my previous post as it's been a while that I posted last hence I created a new one.

Long story short, we still haven't adjusted to therapy and my dh has still been snoring. If everything goes well we will be getting the APAP machine soon which I really hope will be the answer for us as this journey has been very challenging for us both.

I have this morning also recorded the weird noise his current machine makes. It's a terrible squeaking sound. Is there any way to post an audio on here? I would love your opinions on whether the sound is normal or not as at the hospital they pretended like it was normal.

The machine should not be making any kind of funny noise. I am not familiar with the Dream Station, but I do know my machine will make a weird noise if I do not get the humidifier seated properly.
