restless sleep

Post by debdix1410 » Tue Jan 28, 2025 6:58 pm

Hi fellow cpapers,
I have been on cpap for several years now with mixed results. My problem is that lately I have been doing a lot of tossing and turning, struggling to get to sleep. And then when I do, I have crazy dreams that wake me up again! Then, I am aware of my mask and the machine and cant tolerate the noise coming from the machine.
I use a resmed 11 with nasal mask
I know this is pretty random but I am at my wit's end. I just want to fall asleep and wake up 8 hrs later after a restful night!
Ok, rant over :(

Do you take any medications of any kind? If so, what?

Any other physical or mental health issues going on?
