Still can't breathe with machine on

Post by Tri74 » Tue Dec 02, 2014 6:33 am

Anyone wake up with your mask on and still feel like you can't breathe? I have been a Cpap and now a BiPap user for 4 yrs now. Tried several masks and ended up with full face mask now. Still having the same problem around 4 to 5 in the morning .

Trying hard not to give a snarky answer here, but really, could you not provide any info re machine, settings, software results, anything, so we'd have something to go by if wanting to help?

Even more questioning, why would you be treated for 4 years, and know nothing about XPAP's. Then post a Day 1 problem and provide no info. I feel a very heavy chain being pulled here. Jim
