My CPAP is over three years old and my insurance will pay for 90% of a new one. I have a CPAP now and think I would like an APAP with software so I can keep myself on top of things. I travel some. Not a lot but some. Also camp some. Is there a highly rated, small, APAP that can take batteries as wel...

My allergies kicked in last night and I could not breath through my nose. Tried to get something to drain and used the CPAP at full blast to clear out a path in the sinuses. No luck. Laid down anyway and almost passed out. Took off mask and sat in my recliner and slept until 4:45am. Got up and put m...

When I get ready for bed I put on my mask and turn on my machine. My pressure is 13. It seems really hard. I get fitted and hit the ramp button and the pressure goes down. When I wake up it feels like there's hardly any pressure at all. This morning I turned off my machine and turned it back on and ...

Is it from the CPAP you think? Has it caused hearing loss?

Thanks for the replies. I appreicate your pleas for me to go back to CPAP. If you read my post closely you see that I stopped to see if it was affecting the noise in my ears, not because I was quitting therapy. I was just relating the effects and seeing what people thought.

Because of the ringing and noise in my ears I decided to take a night off. I have a new pillow that tilts my chin away from my chest and I positioned my tongue like I would to stop air leaks. I woke up feeling very good and even had dreams! I hadn't had a dream I remembered in forever before I start...

I have been using CPAP for 10 days (except last night). Within the last few days I have developed a pretty constant ringing in my ears and a low roar when it is quiet in the house. I've read the postings and most opinions were that CPAP doesn't cause this but that I had it already and just noticed. ...

I named mine Wendy.

Started doing a little research based on responses. I noticed that I only have the hiccups at night when I lay on my right side. I only had 8 apneas/hour on my right side during my studey vs. 138/hour when on my back. I decided to stay off my side last night and see if there was a difference since I...

It's a REMStar Pro with c-flex set to 3.

Mask is a Comfort Gel

Have used my machine 5 nights (39 hours of run time over those nights). I have a pressue of 13. I am having a terrible time with swallowing air. I wake up in the night and burp huge amounts, I get the hiccups, and I have an incredible amount of gas in the morning. I could win any contest I entered i...

I have the Respironics Comfort Gel.

Just finished my second night on CPAP. I have recorded 15.5 hours of time on the machine so far and have some questions. Both mornings I have woken up feeling a little tired. This morning I was more tired than the first morning. I assumed I would be waking up refreshed like I did after my sleep stud...

Well, kicked off my new life with CPAP last night. To give an update on my battles with the insurance company....I did all the figures and found I could save them over $1000.00 buying the 420e at cpap.com. The agent told me point blank that he didn't care, they had contracts and that I could pay muc...

I've started the arm-wrestling process with my doctor and the DME. My doc is pretty much on my side but feels I will get better service locally. The machine the DME offers is the: REMstar Plus C-Flex CPAP, REMstar Heated Humidifier. I want the 420e, from what I gather here. I'm being told I don't ne...
