Thanks everyone for your help. I have a question for kteague. How do you leave the humidity on and the heat off? I didn’t fill the h2o tank last and I didn’t seem to cough as much today.

Re: CPAP makes me cough

My MD and friends who use cpaps are all at a loss. I’ve sent saliva & stool samples in for testing to see if anything shows up there. I really want to use this thing because I think it helps me sleep better, but the side effects are to much. Risk Reward not worth it right now

Re: CPAP makes me cough

No, I’m still here. Just taking it all in. I think my expectations were too high. I expected to be sleeping like a baby after a week or two. And yes I know it takes time to adjust to it. I appreciate all the feedback. Not taking any meds. I will check when I get home and get the model number and all...
