My hose got me tangled

So I wake up to a loud noise last night, I see my cpap machine turned sideways. Turns out I kept turning over too many times and my hose was wrapped around me twice. It's the weirdest thing.

Re: Went to the Dr Today

that is odd they don't have a reader.

but on a more serious note, how in the world are you able to cut out caffeine after noon? I can't go more than a few hours without my soda

Re: Took the mask off in my sleep

I'm only in my second month, but I'm learning this is common for newbies too. Give yourself time to catch up on your sleep. It takes people longer than others to make up their sleep deficit. What is helping me is keeping a journal of symptoms that are going away. If I didn't do this I would think t...

Took the mask off in my sleep

So I went to bed wearing the cpap mask and woke up with it sitting on my nightstand on top of my machine and it was off. The data showed I used it for about 2.5 hours and I guess I took it off, but I don't remember doing it.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Re: Finally got my CPAP - lots of emotions going on

Ok so I feel like I was awake all night, much like when I did my sleep study. About 5:00 I took it off and my wife immediately noticed my snoring. When I asked if I snored any other time, she said idk I was sleeping.

So she gets a good night sleep, I still have some getting used to it to do.

Finally got my CPAP - lots of emotions going on

so I posted not too long ago that I had to get one, well today is the day I got my machine. It seems pretty simple, it came with a humidifier that attaches and the mask I chose seemed to fit pretty good. I do like the fact that it starts out slow and eventually moves up the the prescribed amount. I ...
