IRREGULAR HEART RATE & DOUBLE VISION

Post by risiworks@yahoo.com » Sat May 26, 2012 9:04 am

I started using Resmed S9 in last November. It cured my snoring completely. However, now I am experiencing irregular heartbeat rates and visionary problem like double vision. Any similar experiences... Please advise..

You should call / see your doctor!

An irregular heartbeat is not something you want to mess around with. And the double vision is also of concern. Just because you use a CPAP machine, does not mean that every new symptom is related to its usage.

Most of us here are CPAP users, not doctors and even if we were, we can't diagnose over the internet.

Your problems are most likely not related to cpap use. There are lots of serious things that can cause both.

Irregular heart beat? You may see a decrease in blood pressure after cpap. If you're not snoring and are on pressure control pills, there is a good chance they need to be re-evaluated but it could some something worse.

I would call your doctor and get an appointment.
