Re: Not Feeling Especially Rested
I have been in CPAP for a little over a week now and I am not feeling significantly different like some people have reported. Does it take a while to feel better? I do feel somewhat more rested, but I am still sleeping like 9 hours a night (down from 10 to 11). I don't snore anymore, so at least th...

M-Series Pro Heated Humidifer leaks?
I am a bit confused after reading the threads regarding heated humidifier leaks on the M-Series CPAP machines. I have a brand new M-Series Pro with an integrated heated humidifier. Are the new ones still having leak problems? Should I get a stand-alone heated humidifier instead? My machine is a rent...

I have been on Provigil for about six months after telling my doctor I felt tired all the time. I was recently diagnosed with severe OSA (AHI=45), so that explains the tiredness. Doctor has told me to keep taking it since I am just starting CPAP (this is my first week). I take 100mg twice a day. I d...

Have yet to see a sleep doctor
My saga started when I mentioned to my primary care physician that my wife thinks I stop breathing sometimes at night due to snoring, but isn't too sure since we sleep in separate beds due to the noise (she is a light sleeper). I was sent to a sleep lab. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea (AHI ...

CPAP with a head cold?
I started CPAP this past Friday and have been compliant since except for last night. I couldn't breath through my nose at all due to a sinus infection/head cold. I didn't try the mask at all (actually it was a nice rest for my nose.. it is pretty sore and raw: I think I have my mask too tight). Do p...

Thanks everyone for the replies to this thread (even though I didn't start it) The DME provider just left. I am sitting here with a brand new M Series Pro CPAP (with heated integrated humidifier) and an Optilife mask hoping everything will work out. I have a pressure setting of 12 and I am praying f...
