Re: Help - Trying CPAP for over 8 weeks now
I am having the same sort of problems
I am only two weeks in - Having a Hell of a time with it
I am determined to stay with it
The Insomnia which was bad before CPAP therapy, has been destroying my life
if there is HELP to be had - I believe this is the place we will find it

Re: They Tell Me I Need This Machine

I got used to increased pressure over time. But, It seems like you might have a unique ear issue. I would go to an ear sp...

Re: They Tell Me I Need This Machine
ckeith, I am very sorry to hear about your bad night. But you are definitely making progress by realizing you need a full face mask in light of the the fact you have rhinitis and a deviated septum. I just feel very confident that once you find the right mask, you are going to be well on your way to...

Re: They Tell Me I Need This Machine
what's she wrong about? the whiners ramp is turned off, pressure fixed at 10. maybe he would be happier with a ramp starting at 7 or 8, certainly not the default of 4.
