Pressure Question
Pressure Question
When I started using my Remstar Auto about three years ago I wore a size 9 hat. Three years later my head has expanded to the point where I now wear a size 12 - That's a full hat size expansion every year. I'm really concerned, because if I stay at this another 30 year I could be up to a size 42 hat. Three questions: 1. Coyld this expansion be caused by excessive pressure in my Remstar Auto? 2. How do I solve it? 3. If I can't solve the problem where do I find a size 42 hat?
Simple!
There's a simple solution to that! Every year or so, simply prick your head with a shisk-ka-bob skewer (with the handle part covered with Moleskin, of course) and let all that pressurized air out! Before you know it, your head will be back to a svelte size 12! (JUST KIDDING!!!)
Cheers!

Best solution is to quit wearing hats....or go to stocking caps or something like that.
I doubt if it's form CPAP.

You are getting a swelled head from thinking how smart you were for getting a APAP.
You could go on vacation to Africa every year, I hear they have a tribe with a Dr. that can make your head smaller again. Jim

Use data to optimize your xPAP treatment!

I don't think the cpap would cause that.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, body totally worn out and screaming,WOO HOO what a ride!
Hat Size
"OSA Guy-I don't mean to make fun of you, but that post made me laugh until I cried. I just don't think it's the cpap.".
Don't worry about it. I don't even know what my hat size is, as I don't wear one. Just trying to keep my mind off my upcoming surgery.

Skewer removal sugestions
OSA Guy if the Skewer is still stuck here are a few ideas that might help.
1. tie a string to a door or heavy object and then attach it to the end of the skewer. (Make sure that when door or object is closed or dropped that you are prepared to go with it if the skewer does not come out!!!)
2. You can use the skewer to hang items from like those car air fresheners
3. If it is still long enough carefully light the end on fire so you can see in the dark to get to the front door. Caution be prepared to snuff out the flame before your hair or other imporrtant things catch fire.
4. Live with the skewer where it is and hang a paper doll from it and introduce it as your friend Woody!!
