Hi,
I am waking up more often with both of my sides hurting. I am also noticing leg cramps when I mask up. I don't have them when I am not on the machine. Any ideas what is going on? Anyone experience this?
Thank you

Re: Pain in sides and leg cramps
Often leg cramps are due to a vitamin deficiency.
Also remember that when you sleep with a Cpap you relax deeper and move less so you may need a mattress topper to prevent pressure cutting off some of your circulation.
As for the aching sides - when I bumped up my pressure the first few days I had that too, felt like I had been blowing up balloons for a week or so.

Then again, you might want to get your kidneys checked out...
