Re: New to CPAP, discouraged already. Help.

I've never taken my mask off in my sleep. Once I disconected the hose somehow though. Of course I woke up from an apnea event and reconnected it.

Re: Delayed effects of the trauma of surgery?

The whole but flexing thing sounds like a lie or excuse they made up. If you go under for surgery they numb you and stuff. Think about when they just do a local? Even if they didnt numb you and you were unconcious, they still prety much paraplise you so you woudlnt be able to squeeze your butt. As f...

Re: Blood Oxygen Saturation Levels

Further looking at my finger moniter data shows that my oxygen leve feel to 82 and 83 for a minute or so. Maybe 30 seconds. The readback screen sucks on this thing If I look at the data close enough to copy it down it times out and it scrolls 1 page at a time from over 1000 pages.

I just pull the data card out hook the hose up to the machine and let it run.
It wont (mine anyway) record data with the card removed.

Hello, When I use Cpap some nights the air takes a wrong turn. Instead of going to the lungs, it goes to the stomach. I know there is a term for it that starts with "A" I really don't care what it's called. How do I make it stop? Some nights its not a problem. Other nights it keeps me up I have not ...
