Re: CPAP Metrics - Vibratory Snore

I have a question: What kind of HOSE are you using? Is it by chance the Performance hose from Phillips Respironics? If so, this could be part of the issue. I had the same problem with my VS Index going through the roof. Finally figured out the flimsy plastic that this hose is made of must be making ...

Re: God > CPAP

really where are you going ? You might end up being sucked up the hose and into the tank huh LOL....... Yeah, I kinda figure I'll end up with a severe case of aerophagia, build up an enormous fart, and blow myself to the moon! Oh well, at least there will be plenty of cheese to eat! LOL

Re: God > CPAP

I had not been diagnosed with it yet..... Maybe / maybe not. At the time, it was the least of my worries. I DO, however, feel like I have had this for a very long time.

Re: Groggy in the morning

You are repaying your "sleep debt"..... you have been sleep deprived for how many years? It will take a good while to get all of that back. My suggestion: sleep in on the weekends. Nap any chance you get for the next few weeks. The grogginess will go away and you will begin to feel like a new person...

Re: Swift FX Leak Questions

Dumb question: Are you pulling the covers up close to your face? I've had a few nights where I thought i had a leak, when in fact it was the air coming out of the vent and "reflecting" off the covers back into my face.

Just a thought.

I wish you well with your therapy.

Re: How long can an apnea be?

My longest one during my study was 127 seconds...... they all averaged around 100-120 seconds.

Try holding your breath for that length of time......
