Re: still tired after using CPAP

Hi gang, I'm relatively new to using a CPAP, but so far I've found that the machine has only had a marginal effect on my well-being, mood, and energy. I still have quite a bit of fatigue and I yawn a lot throughout the day. Could anyone tell me what they think could be happening? Also, has anyone h...

Do the leaks wake you up?

Any facial hair maybe impacting the seal?...or are you clean shaven?
I'm a woman, so, yes, I'm clean shaven. Facial hair isn't an issue. :)
but, do the leaks wake you up?
Sometimes they do.

AirFit F30 Mask Leak Issue

It's been a while since I've been on here, but, I'm currently having an issue. Some months ago, I had my CPAP pressure increased which made my mouth open at night causing dry mouth, so, I switched from a nasal mask (AirFit N20), to a full-face mask (AirFit F30) which solved my dry-mouth problem. I r...

At A Loss

I’m at a loss. I’ve been on CPAP for almost a year and a half, and I don’t feel any better than I did before I started “therapy,” if anything, maybe worse. I NEVER wake up feeling rested. Always tired, always sleepy. I’ve started thinking I’ll be feeling this way permanently. I thought CPAP was supp...

Re: Problem with leakage SOLVED!!

Yep! Finally solved my leakage problem, too. Ever since my pressure was increased last month, I've had an issue with high leakage numbers (25-30+) which I'd never had before. I'm a natural nose breather and use a nasal mask (AirFit N20). The only thing I could think of was that, at some point during...

Re: Problem with leakage SOLVED!!

Pugsy, I set my machine's data collection from one month to one day, now my machine and myAir numbers are pretty much match up.

Re: Problem with leakage SOLVED!!

Hi, Pugsy! If I COULD use OSCAR I would, but it's not available for Android. (Love your profile pic!) :) My avatar is my little Pug Sarge. I lost him to sudden heart issues a few years ago. I still miss him every day. He was totally devoted to me. Bummer...can't use OSCAR...so answer the question.....

Re: sleeping on the side or the back

I'm a natural side sleeper. I get on my left side and I'm there all night. I've been an inactive sleeper all my life. I don't toss and turn.

Re: Problem with leakage SOLVED!!

This is good to know! I have mild to moderate apnea, and I've been on CPAP (AirSense 10 Auto) for over a year at a very low pressure (4.0) using an AirFit N20 mask. I never had any leakage issues until last month when my pressure was increased to 8.7. Since then, my N20 has been leaking like crazy, ...
