Re: Dreams :(
I used to never remember dreaming before using cpap, my third night on the mask I had such a vivid dream I threw myself out of bed and cut my ear on the nightstand. Thankfully since then my dreams have been less action packed but I do seem to remember having more. my AHi has been under 1 mostly sinc...

Re: leaks!
so I ordered a sample of the mask liners, hopefully they will be in today or tomorrow. Last night I had horrible leaks the machine said 43% but I must have taken it off and went to sleep because it also said it was only on for 45 mins. I talked to my DME today and they offered to send me another mas...

I'm getting frustrated with my mask, the first two weeks I used it I had no issues it worked fine. now the damn thing seems to leak all the time. near my eyes sometimes, on the side other times. I have readjusted the straps. I've tried tighter and looser. I just don't know why its so bad this last w...

Re: hand swelling
Update from last night, I slept for about 4 hours straight Woo hoo, my wife said I slept through the baby crying twice, I also had less dry mouth when I woke up, but my throat is scratchy. might be a cold coming on. I had less hand swelling, just a little on my left hand so maybe it was a sleeping p...

Re: hand swelling
I haven't slept more than a couple hours solid yet, but I'm looking forward to it. Past few nights my son has been waking up just about every hour.

Re: hand swelling
It is just swelling, it's a little uncomfortable til I get up and moving a bit. I have had foot and leg swelling, I take medicine for high blood pressure and a water pill already, just strange that the hand swelling started so recently

Re: hand swelling
i'll check with the Doc, I was just wondering if anyone else experienced it since it started about the same time and I saw some articles about it online. Thanks

hand swelling
Hello. I have been using my cpap since the 23rd of Dec, with mixed results. the last couple of days I have woken up with swollen and stiff hands. Is this normal? I only slept a couple hours at a time last night between bathroom breaks and getting up with a baby.

Re: going the wrong way
yup, I had the wrong one listed, sorry about that. I have the Pro with c-flex (whatever that is). My pressure is set at 16. I have been using a fifteen min ramp so I can get my breathing in line with the machine. I was able to fall asleep rather quickly last night, I have been getting about 8 hrs a ...

The last to days since going back to work and getting up at 6am I feel exhausted again and just want to go back ...

Re: first days on CPAp
IT looks like we have the same machine and I do have a question. I've used it for 5 nights and the sd card is still at 100%, shouldn't that percentage go down if its recording data?

first days on CPAp
So I got my CPAP on the 23rd and so far I'm having pretty good results. I was told during my test I had averaged 90 AHI per hour and my O2 level would get down around 45% Since I've been using the machine it says I'm averaging 0.8 AHI the last 5 nights. I have a hard time falling asleep but seem to ...

Re: New around here
thank you for the info, I will have to do some more research. I'm sure I' will have plenty of questions once I get the machine.
