Hi Michael, I’m just coming on here to say I have the exact same problem since trying nasal pillows/cushion for about 6 weeks and I also have the same machine. I never got a response back to my post after adjustments so it’s been helpful reading all the help you’re getting from others. I’m sad you’r...

I am strugggling and haven’t slept well in over a week. I am beyond exhausted. Last night I used my ASV for almost 12 hours and I feel like it was taking me on a test drive. I don’t understand why I’m having this issue with the switch to nasal pillow/cushion. My pressure would shoot up as I was drif...

A small update- I unintentionally wasn't methodical about changing too many variables so I am working that out but I did have some positive change: 1. I slept a little more elevated and tried the lower PS. It did help a few nights. I don't like sleeping even slightly propped up because I never can g...

Just wondering if your allergy and asthma meds are having effects on your sleep - they normally tend to interfere and you might want to talk to your MD about them, or even possibly a counteracting one like a small dose of melatonin before bed (couple of hrs before). Thanks Julie! I hadn’t thought o...

I wasn’t very clear about the silicone comment. My face ends up itching a lot with the silicone FFM. I’m fine until I wake up after 3-4 hours.

That’s a great idea about changing PS min! I will give it a try. Yeah, I still had aerophagia with the EPAP set at 4. What’s weird is I didn’t experience the first two nights when I first tried the pillows. I think the first night my EPAP was still at 8! The P10 are not a good option for me, I tried...

I also noticed the pressure being lower with the pillows too! You know a lot m...

Oops! I uploaded them on the site. Let me know if this doesn't work!

Thank you both for responding! I had my sleep test three years ago. I failed at CPAP titration and bilevel. My 4th study was with ASV and my AHI was immediately under 2 that night. Baseline Sleep study results were like 6 OA, 5 CA, 1 mixed and 170 hypopneas. AHI was 42 and RAI 0.7. I was told I coul...

Hello, I am new to this forum after just discovering it this week. I have recently tried nasal pillows (p10) after only using a FFM. It seems I am experiencing aerophagia for the first time while trying the pillows. I really don’t know what to do from here. I don’t want to go back to a FFM at all bu...
