Air Flow on Back

Post by KLP » Tue Sep 07, 2021 8:01 pm

When i wake up and turn onto my back it is like a break or stuttering in the air flow. If I start out laying on my back it doesn’t happen.

Wow, you were here less than 5 minutes and posted a innocuous comment.

Assuming you're not a spammer or a troll, what problem is the stuttering causing you?

We tend to hold our breath when we change positions in bed.
The "stuttering" was probably your machine checking if you were breathing again.

Is this one break or one stutter? Or are you talking about something that continues?

Why not just ignore it?
