Unexpected Insomnia and Panic Attacks

Hi So I’ve been on the forum for a while but I’ve recently had some very serious issues surrounding sleep. I had a panic attack one evening at the start of August, went to the ER. This was the first night I panicked because I knew I wasn’t falling asleep and I know I needed sleep, so it’s like a sno...

Re: New to CPAP but feeling much worse instead of better

Remember two things. What works for others probably won’t work for you, at least in my case so you have to do your own thing. Also, never give up. Take a break every now and then to reset, but cpap therapy is 100% worth it. It took me from 2022-2024 to finally dial in my pressures, but I messed with...

Re: Waking up at 2:30-3:00am every single night past 3 weeks

I'm reading the book "why we sleep". Which is truly astonishing the detail and things I've learned and I'm not even halfway. But no, I do not drink alcohol and I do not read in bed. I know the rules :). Falling asleep has changed drastically from before. I used to be so wired going to bed and couldn...

Waking up at 2:30-3:00am every single night past 3 weeks

So as the title says this has been happening to me the past month. I don’t know what changed but it’s super annoying and frustrating because I don’t know why it’s happening or what I can do. It almost seems like my circadian rhythm is way out of whack, but I’ve been going to sleep around 9:00-9:30 f...

Re: looking for tricks to sleeping on my side...please!

Yeah big pillow behind you and small pillow between knees is what helped me stay sleeping on my side. I used to be a purely mouth breather and back sleeper, now I use a nasal mask (with very minimal leaking at night) and I sleep on my side. It’s all practice and repetition. Just like with anything e...

Bleep Dreamport Mask Solution

Hi! SO I just wanted to notify everyone out there who is having mask/pressure issues for any reason. I was a huge fan of Bleep Dreamports a year ago, but I decided to use the P10 because it's easy to put on every night and it controlled my leaks just as well as the Dreamports. The prep time wasn't a...

Re: looking for tricks to sleeping on my side...please!

Putting pillow between my knees has helped comfort tremendously, I think I struggled too until I did that.

Re: Bleep Eclipse Machine Mask Setting

I however notice a change in the flow though compared with the P10 and the dreamports. I love the flow of the dreamports it's so relaxing and comfortable. I've been very busy lately though so I wear my P10 more than anything because it just slips on. THe dreamports are by far my favorite though.

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a

That deal fell through. There was 0 used hours but I asked for the run hours and it was 21000! So I passed on it. I wish someone could trade my prisma 20a for an aircurve . Don’t care which model but I’m out $1600 and it still hurts because it’s a lot of money

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a

I have a chance to get an aircurve 10 tonight. Do you think my therapy will be more comfortable with it than my airsense 11? I have small airways and I feel the ps support is most important for me.

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a

Sounds like what I need for sure. The easybreathe mode in S mode how does that compare to using vauto? Does it time your breathing pretty well while asleep?

Re: Moving from AS 11 to Lowenstein PRISMA 20a

I have read about people having trouble with the transition to biPAP from APAP as well. Not sure of their main complaints but I do think it has to do with that timing. I think the majority said to put it on rapid response or whatever it was. I know that some people also ordered the wrong machine. Mo...
