I keep my distilled water in a green 1-liter bottle in fridge. A couple nights ago, I started to fill up my humidifier tank, and it was fizzing! The green bottle I had picked out of the fridge was a green 2-liter Fresca... fortunately it was only a tablespoon lost soft drink To be honest, I'm not sure how much was apneic brain-deadness, or "normal senior moment".walking coma wrote:I emptied out my humidifier, filled it with water, turned it on and wasn't getting any pressure so I checked the hoses for leaks and there wasn't any. Read my manual and it said there might be a problem with the blower. It's the weekend my sleep clinic is closed, I'm a newbie and very terrified at the thought of having to sleep without my cpap. I go into the kitchen and there laying on my counter is the TOP to my humidifier. Duh
This is my brain on sleep apnea. Tell me about yours.

The longer I'm on therapy, the more I realize how much "old age" was just not breathing!
Senior moments: There's a PAP for that.
