Headaches

Post by Joecv5 » Fri Sep 06, 2019 6:51 am

Been using my c pap for about a month. Initial setting was 4-20. I was still getting high AHI. Titrated up to 7-20 with great results. Ahi has been running around 2-6. The past few night I’ve been getting headaches when I wake up like I did before the c pap. Any ideas?
Thanks

Please download and use OSCAR if you have not already.

Then post results here. Somebody will make suggestions. I think if we can get your AHI even lower, you'll feel better.

Also, please fill out your profile with your equipment.

welcome to the zoo! please do as dh requests use the oscar software. see the links in my signature below.

we are each of us different; just different enough that works for me won't necessarily work for thee and the other way around. so we are going to need more info from you in order to help you.

see my links. in one, you'll be asked to fill out your equipment profile. this will go a long way towards getting advice.

the oscar software will tell us what make up your ahi. that, in turn, will help the experts zero in on what to suggest to improve your therapy.

good luck!!
people say i'm self absorbed.
but that's enough about them.
