I have a spinal injury, and i tried sooo many masks, even trying to cut the back with scissors. best fit for me is evora, but i can't have pressure on the back of my neck at all ( it's not tight, any looser and the lower pard of the cushion start leaking. i fitted my cushion to s-M size after trying...

I purchased a Muse S EEG band to test at home, I'm not completing my sleep cycles as you can see the arousals.
I used to sleep with cpap device but was waking all the same, my AHI was always less than 0.5.
no PLMD either.

not sure what is the next step

i have not done the DISE yet, but i have been reading more about UARS and it looks like most of my symptoms are UARS related. ( low AHI, cold hands/feet, extreme fatigue through the day, arousals all night with RERAs, light sleep, narrow jaw and narrow throat, crowded teeth and elevated tongue ) now...

hello, i know i'm late to the party but i have very similar conditions, i read Dr. Park book and my symptoms are to the teeth . fragmented light sleep/ cold hands and feet/ narrow jaw and crowded teeth, very low Ahi, not releif from bi level. extreme sleepiness and fatigue through the day. have you ...

I know I'm little late to the party but I have exact same symptoms without the nightmares or the meds. Almost 4 months on CPAP/biLevel and horrible sleepiness through the day. I also think my nervous system is not letting me have that deep restorative sleep. As well as I have a high REM apnea that I...

...Through the day i breath normal, but i feel need to swallow my saliva, and when i do, my throat feel like there is stuck mucus in it, which i have been told that is my vocal cords closing. i have been given breathing exercises to try to train my cords to stay open, but i don't see any difference...

Thank you guys for the support and the time you took to answer each of my threads. i'm just posting new threads because i sleep so good (8+hrs a day) so i don't know what else to do the rest of the day, other then spamming the forum .

briefly i have been trying an apap for 30 days, the bilvel vauto, still waking up fully alert at night like i cant go to deep sleep because of SDB. here is my last night screen : https://i.imgur.com/nUsnate.png based on the dr Krakow's analysis, i'm thinking maybe i also have UARS, because of my thr...

I've been getting very low AHIs, usually less than 1. but i can not stay asleep at night, i'm attaching the zoomed out graph, then zoomed in on airflow. Each time i wake up, i mark it , i can not see anything weird right before the arousals. This has been going on for a while now and i can not figur...

I agree with JNK, your chart looks pretty good. You need to remember that CPAP can not fix poor sleep due to causes other than Sleep Disordered Breathing. If poor sleep results from other than SDB, no amount of CPAP tweaking will make it better. That said, it does take some time to become accustome...

I posted about my fragmented sleep here: http://www.cpaptalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=174562&p=1287139#p1287139 I have been having apneas since august last year, till i started using the CPAP in december 2018. Since august till now, even i tried the cpap for a month and half and now trying a bipap, i...

A tennis ball disrupts sleep. Consuming nothing but water for the hours preceding sleep can help some with aerophagia. It can also sometimes help the LES heal when there is nothing in the stomach when you go horizontal. If you go back to sleep after waking up, don't worry too much about waking up. ...

What happened August 2018? Any big weight increase around that time? It looks like pressure should be higher, but you could not tolerate it. I would say increase it 0.5 at a time to higher pressures. my thorat developed LPR (Laryngopharyngeal Reflux) , which narrowed the airflow. How do you know i ...

hi Pugsy, if you have time, could you please look at this : viewtopic/t174562/Inexplicable-fragmented-sleep.html

thanks

I wrote few posts here on the board, but i decided to make this in a post on its own because all the other posts i wrote were not the main issue. The main issue is i can't have a good night sleep because i keep waking up 4-5 times a night ( always in rem cycle, i wake up remembering the dream) This ...
