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.
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".

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.

I overfilled the H5i tank and caused self induced rain-out.
