Re: Morning Chest Pain After CPAP
My doctor told me that you may experience a little chest pain when first starting cpap but that it should go away. If you've been on cpap for awhile and still have this problem then your pressure might be too high according to the doctor. However you should definetly talk to your doctor as it may al...

Re: Does anyone NOT use a humidifier?
My father has never used his humidifier whereas I've never gone a day without using it. I'm also curious to see if I really need it or not.

Re: Snoring with CPAP
My numbers are good too and I still snore quite a bit although it's not near as loud as it was before therapy. I've been on CPAP since Feb 2010.

Re: Forgot my cpap
I went thru this last week too. I remembered right before I decided I wanted to go to bed. I thought I would be fine just for 1 night but boy was I wrong! I kept waking up every 10-15min for the first 4 hours then I think I ended up getting about hrs of sleep but felt absolutely awful the next day. ...

Re: Would like to hear about everyones experience....
Thanks SleepyT....I wondered that too, if its still just too early. I have seen so many improvements so far and some happened really quickly so I guess I'm just anxious for other things to improve now too! LOL

Re: Would like to hear about everyones experience....
Jeanette...you said that perfectly....no bad nights just bad days...no energy days. Thats exactly how I am too. Numbers are perfect! My doctor told me today to put my pressure up by 1 more (13 up to 14) tonight and try it there for awhile to see if it makes a difference. Here's hoping!!

Re: Sleeping better but waking up too early
I've been on cpap for 3 months now and last month I went thru a few weeks of waking up at 5 or 5:30am everyday. I couldn't get back to sleep so I found myself getting up and doing things as I had lots of energy. That only lasted for a few weeks though and now I'm back to sleeping for 10hrs and not f...

Re: Would like to hear about everyones experience....
So I just got off the phone with the sleep clinic. They were calling me to tell me the results of my oximetry test which was excellent. I told her how I"ve been feeling and told her that I feel like I'm still not at 100%. She said she will talk to the doctor and see if there are any adjustments we c...

Would like to hear about everyones experience....
I started on CPAP on Feb 9th, 2010 and if I really think about it I basically noticed an improvement right from the beginning (not without a few hiccups along the way like most). I guess its only been 3 months and while I've had so many improvements to my quality of life since starting I feel like I...

fixing time on data
I just got my new machine yesterday and I downloaded the data from last night onto my computer this morning. I'm using Encore Pro 2 software. The only thing I'm wondering is how to fix the time. I went to bed at 11:30pm yet my data shows I went to bed at 4:30pm??? Anyone know how to fix this?

Re: Post your favorite mask
I was given the Mirage Quattro full face. I don't really have any probs at all with it. I find it very comfortable to wear with very few leak problems whether I'm sleeping on my back or my side.
