Re: BREATHING WITH A FULL FACE MASK

Re: Crunching(and understanding) the cpap numbers???
Hi, the EXACT same thing was happening to me. I felt worse even with an achy flu like feeling while wearing a nasal mask with the cpap. My leak rate was high like yours and I figured out that i was leaking air from my mouth. I got a chin strap and then my mouth still opened and I also got a headache...

Hi Kathy, Thanks for your reply. Deep sleep is an amazing feeling. I almost can't wait to go to bed. I totally know what you mean about being stuck in the middle of awake and asleep. I never (until this week) feel like I really sleep much, i mean i am so close to being awake,...hard to explain but i...

Hi there, my theory is that having apnea/hypopnea causes a beer belly. I am serious. My sleep study said I wake up with 81 hypopneas per hour. Sometimes I wake all of the way up into a full fight or flight panic attack. I assume when I am waking up 81 times and I do not remember them, that I am havi...

Relationships have been ending since the beginning of time. That is painful. Why would anyone take a pill trying to make that pain go away? I don't get it.

Hi there, there are sooo many horror stories about anti-d's on the web. I too made that mistake before I took the one I am on/and during my treatment. I am on Paxil.
