Cpap ?

Do any of you change the pressure on your CPAP machine yourself? or do the doctors always do it?

Mine is set for 4-7cm. and my average says I've been using 6.9

Should the levels be raised?

Thanks

Yes

No.

Average pressure or average time sleeping?

How do you feel?

I started out at a 4-8 (I insisted on having an auto, and couldn't handle a fixed pressure of 7 in the beginning), and I gradually changed my pressure, based on the quality of my sleep, the quality of my waking time, and the results reported by my machine.

Should the levels be raised?

See the above.

Good luck.
