My poor kids call me foghorn because I have been constantly expelling gas for 3 days. Damn guinea pig is even avoiding me. In all seriousness, I am c...

After 4 nights, I am ready to quit....or at least call my dr

I can only wear that mask for 2 hours or so before my body starts leaking and then I feel bloated and make distracting sounds all day. Is there s...

Last night was my first night with CPAP

I have an AHI of 80.6 and a min blood oxygen sat of 70% before the CPAP. I woke up this morning bone dry feeling like my mouth had been open hanging out the window of a speeding train for days. I used all the water in the humidifier. My CPAP is set at CFLex with a pressure of 17. Is there anything I...
