Thanks. I was hoping maybe my CPAP was part of the problem and maybe set to high or something. Because the problem seems to have crept up since I increased the setting. But the problem is chronic and remains.
I don't know, I year into this and I still don't have it worked out perfectly yet.

Can CPAP casue stomach to bloat out?
I logged in for the first time in a year and saw tags about bloating. Made me take notice because my stomach has ballooned out in the last year and I haven't been able to figure out why. Thought it was a med but I stopped it and the problem still exits. Kinda feels like a balloon inside sometimes. I...

I'm running the air conditioner at night. I always have a fan or air going. I have to have air moving. Even at work I keep a fan at my desk. I hate it when things are stuffy and I feel like I can't breath. My favorite days are windy ones Last night I tried some Buspar (anxiety) it didn't really help...

Thank you Den, Guest and Bap40 I think it is an mseries with a humidifer and c-flex. The hotflash is partly anxiety after 3 tries, that can trigger them but I'm fine when I fisrt put it on, it's after I go to sleep. I don't think there is a heater with the humidifier but I'll look. Certainly the HD ...

HELP! Get too hot, claustrophobic, rip it off after 1 1/2 hr
Hi, I just got an CPAP with nose mask. They set it at 10. I've tried it 3 times now and each time it feels like a wind tunnel, and as soon as I lay down I either start a hotflash because I feel like I'm suffocating or I go to sleep for maybe 1 1/2 hours and wake up with a hotflash and feeling like I...
