Re: Another newbie about to have my first night with CPAP
Just to give an update.. I'm feeling a bit gassy but not nearly as bad.. I am also feeling much more rested during the day.. I'm averaging around 7.9hrs of sleep... The last three weeks I've gotten more sleep then the last nine months since my daughter was born and she was sleeping through the night...

Re: Another newbie about to have my first night with CPAP

Re: Another newbie about to have my first night with CPAP
So I got the dream wear mask three days ago and switched to that and I've had 0 AHIs every day since.. I think I finally found what works for me. I am feeling much clearer during the day and it's glorious!

Re: Another newbie about to have my first night with CPAP
I have a Dell tablet that runs like a full computer... Also here's a question. I've noticed the past two nights I wake up in the middle of the night because I feel my mask start blowing hard and when I look at my machine it's at 10 or 11... Do you think this is due to an episode or the fit of the pi...
