Re: Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

So turning on the EPR setting on and setting it to 3 has helped quite a bit you guys. Like I almost feel normal in the morning now. It's not even close to as bad as it was. Thanks for the advice everyone. Who would've thought EPR would save lives?

Re: Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

Man you guys... I just went into the clinical settings and realized the EPR wasn't even on. I turned it up to 3. Maybe that's all I need. We will see if my coworkers like me more tomorrow. Haha.

Re: Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

You guys have made this terrible situation pretty funny. I'm going to try some of the suggestions and try to keep my sense of humor about it.

Re: Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

Sometimes reducing the pressure or limiting the pressure will help ....sometimes it doesn't. Worth trying...just make sure you keep an eye on the software results so that you don't let too many apnea events slip past the defenses. Do you know about the software? https://sleep.tnet.com/equipment If ...

Re: Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

OMG. You guys really know what is going on. I had no idea. So to give you more info on me. I am a side and stomach sleeper. I have a CPAP pillow. My machine is already on auto as that was how my treatment was planned. My average pressure per night is 12.9. I already have the exhale relief set to the...

Extreme flatulence every morning since CPAP

Hi, I am still getting used to wearing CPAP as I am a first timer since I recently got diagnosed. This is a really embarrassing question to ask, but every morning now since like the 1st week (it's only been 2 weeks), I wake up with extreme gas. I will fart for hours in the morning and then it finall...

Re: Mask stupidity

I've also found in general twitter a good place to get contact with a company when I have had a bad experience. They usually try to get back with me quickly because I just put them on blast in a public way. It of course doesn't always work, but for me I've had the majority respond and then take it o...

Re: Does it matter if your machine is level with you or lower?

Cool. I just wanted to make sure I was doing everything on the up and up. Good to know it is good to have it lower with the humidity since that is what I am already doing. I just need to continue to bend my butt over to get down to it and refill it will water at night. If you are having to refill y...

Does it matter if your machine is level with you or lower?

Hi, This is kind of a weird question and tried to search to see if anyone had asked this. I was wondering if it matters if your CPAP machine is level with you and your bed approximately or if you can have the machine lower like on a lower shelf or the floor. I have a night stand by my bed that is pr...

Re: My Experience Trying the Air Fit P10

I'm just starting out CPAP for the first time. Last week I wore the medium with the pink straps and I had a lot of air leaks. I got a hold of a large and will wear the pink straps. I don't think my nostrils are that huge that I need the large but I guess I will see. It is probably also more of a pr...

Re: My Experience Trying the Air Fit P10

I had such high hopes for this mask. I was SO disappointed! I must have a huge head (insert jokes here) because it was SO tight! I adjusted the straps (no tabs to adjust, you can only move the straps around in different position to tighten and loosen) to the loosest it could possibly go and still s...
