Re: Terrible Nasal Congestion
It has improved a little bit I suppose. I can breath through my left nostril somewhat. My right one is plugged up right now. The right nostril was also bleeding a little bit when I blew my nose this morning.

Re: Terrible Nasal Congestion

At the time I went to bed the indoor humidity was at 52% and the room temp was 61 degrees. I filled my humidifier tank to the full line and set my level to 3. When I woke up this mo...

Re: Terrible Nasal Congestion
I'm not sure about the humidity levels in the apartment or bedroom. I would guess low? Maybe I can pick something up from a Home Depot that could measure the humidity level. Both my girlfriend and I like the room to be on the cool side. I would guess the room temp to be around 64-67 degrees.

Re: Terrible Nasal Congestion
At this moment both sides are plugged. But it has also bounced around from left and right as well. My nose has been a little runny when I'm outside in the cold air but that was a few week ago. It isn't runny now.

Terrible Nasal Congestion
Greetings all. I'm still pretty new to my CPAP machine. I was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and was setup with a machine on February 8th. Since then I've had a continuous battle with my nose being plugged up. I picked up some Zicam from the local pharmacy at the time and that works really well f...
