Whoa...full stop. The SoClean machine can damage your CPAP unit?? How??

Been a while since I logged in. My F&P finally needed upgrading so I have brought home a new Philips dreamstation. I like the fact that I no longer need to borrow a 12v machine when I go away to the camp!

My Index, read off my Icon usually is around the low 3. somethings. I have developed a bad cold and slept kind of upright in the corner of the couch and my AHI 2 nights ago was 1. Hmmm, lowest ever and only got 3 good hours of sleep before coughing and stuff kept me up. Had a good 6 hr sleep last ni...

Sorry...

Hi Lena. I went and had a look at your gallery of fibre art creations, exceptional and very lifelike. I see how you are able to vent some feelings through your hands, nice work. Tell it you will be back Tough times don't last, tough people do.

Try knocking the humidity down more in the summer. When I started CPAP in Sept I found the mask too hot and stuffy, solved by lowering the humidity. I have the humidity turned back up for the winter and don't notice any undo warmth at all.

Well not really but I kept getting a tickle on my nose last night and it got me wondering. Anyone ever get a little bug crawl up the tube during the day and make its acquaintance at 3 A.M. ??

My Eson mask leaks when I roll over and the straps slip around. My hose came off one night too, I re-tell it as a comedy act for my friends, they laugh like hell when I start acting like an elephant that just discovered it has a trunk LMAO

Don't monkey around, get the CT surgery. 100% perfect now, I can sleep, use my ATV, fishing rod etc with no numbness.

Thanks for the reply Buford T. My info is on my post but you have to look close lol.

Done my follow up sleepover and my machine was upped to 12cm and then the problems started. My AHIs are very low now which is good but I am waking up during the night and my mouth is drier than a popcorn fart. My Dr. upped the humidity but still it happens. Apparently I opened my mouth during the sl...

That's correct. I woke with cold this morning, running nose and sneezing all day, Im gonna give the machine a break tonight.

Actually I do use and like the ramp feature. I am very new to this and don't know what titration is. My study AH Index was 54.2 I just checked my machine after I posted and last night I was 6.2 so I guess its working
Off to follow your vid link, thanks.

Howdy. After years and years of complaints from my ex wife and my now girlfriend I went for a sleep study. They gave me a copy of the report and although I don't know all the jargon yet I was diagnosed with Apnea 56 events an hour on my side and 137 events an hour on my back Received my CPAP that af...
