Pink Nailbeds

I've been using CPAP faithfully for about 6 months. Lately, I've noticed that my nail beds are pinker than before....could it be better oxygen saturation?

EXACTLY, Mothra7!
Good news!

Pinch the sides of a finger around the nail, then let go, and watch the color return to your nailbed. That is a good way of determining circulation at the extremeties.

Good for you!
