Gassy question

I finally got a mask and having great sleep for about a week, and I am feeling so much better , now for the embarrassing question

I have gas and real bad and it smells bad, and I have alot of it, for the last 2 nights I havent been able to sleep good cause my stomach hurts or I am afraid I am going to gross the huby out , What is wrong with me, I did not eat anything gassy today,
and what can I do, I have it all day long and wow it is bad

The problem is called aerophagia or swallowing air. From what I have read here it is possible that you have a problem with the valve at the top of your stomach which prevents acid from coming up and air from going down. A more elaborate machine migh have some adjustments which could help, but I encourage you to search on the subject (I hope I spelled it correctly) and find alternate treatments.

Good Luck,

While air is indeed a gas, the smelly type you are describing that we ara all familiar with is different from the aerophagia caused by PAP.

Metabolic gas results from the digestion by microbes of complex carbohydrates.
CPAP gas is produced by the physical swallowing of air.
It should not smell unless it adds to the other.

This is why the gas aids such as mylanta and gas x are useless in pap caused problems.

If it smells, you need to chceck your diet, if not, then your PAP.
