Newly diagnosed and treating ADHD
I do have sleep apnea so I started using a
CPAP
and we've made a lot of tweaks but it never helped my daytime sleepiness nor did I actually sleep better at night.

2 years since robotic radical prostectomy. Dr Lowe portland or. Constant battle with incontinence. Until now!.
I have conducted a very interesting experiment with my
cpap
machine, when I sleep with it on 99% of the time it's a bone dry night, when I go to sleep and forget or just go to sleep without putting it on, its guaranteed 100% of the time i have a waterworks display in my bed , it's become very simple

CPAP weaning!
I did however have a pacemaker fitted a few years after stopping the
cpap
, then eventually developed PAF last year. My wife noticed the strange breathing again so I was retested and found to have severe apnea! So now have a machine again. Again, I've never noticed any benefit with the
cpap
.

Weaning off a cpap machine.
Not really an a-fib question but many of us are on C-Pap machines. Has anyone ever been able to wean off their machine? And if so, how did you do it? Thanks irina

3 weeks after Cryoablation
During the day I’m feeling pretty good ( just a random persistent cough) but when I try to go to sleep at night.... my A-Fib and fast heart rate (100+) comes back when I lay down on my back and my sides also while wearing a
cpap
machine This started in my 3rd week after surgery but I noticed if I sit

Important to consider sleep apnoea as a contributor to thyroid, fatigue and related metabolic troubles
It’s inconvenient (requires a
CPAP
blower and face mask, and a bit of getting used to), but was immediately effective.

COPD and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (Cpap)
On the one or two occasions I have managed to sleep with the
CPAP
machine, only for about 3-4 hours, I've woken up with a blocked nose and stuffy head. I have the moisture attachment and this is set to 6. Any suggestions? Its making me panic breath just thinking about it.

Obstructive Sleep Apena
I have a group trial of
CPAP
in a few weeks at my local hospital. I am quite apprehensive. Anyone have an tips, what if you want to buy your own machine? Also have surgery in a months time and have been told I must bring the
CPAP
machine with me if I have been given it by then.

CPAP - Finally 😁
Happy Thursday Guys I had my introduction and fitting for my
CPAP
machine yesterday, a sleek looking ‘ResMed, AirSense 10 Autoset’ with clip on humidifier 🤓 I managed about 4 hours with the mask on before waking up.

Which ailment do I focus on?
I'm tired all the time and cat take a nap without my
CPAP
machine. I dont know its its shortness of breath or a tight chest. But I am having trouble breathing when I try to take a nap without my mask. Its 6am I've been awake since 2:30 potty break Ok good luck. What's wrong with me, lately?

Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea 😬
Hi Guys, Just got told yesterday that I have Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea and that I will need to be fitted with a
CPAP
machine. This on top of COPD (12mnths). I’m feeling a little anxious to say the least.

Cpap andInsurance
He said that I will be trying a
cpap
machine. He also said I need to inform dvla and my insurer. Does anyone know what the insurer will charge because of this? Will I have any restrictions placed on me.? Also, what percentage my insurance will go by?

Diagnosed with severe sleep apnea
I am a 40-year-old lady who a few days ago was diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and sought the help of
CPAP
equipment and supplies ( https://www.cpapoutlet.ca/Home ). A few weeks ago, I decided to spend my holiday in London and booked a flight.

The endless story of my fatigue and brain fog.
I did the sleep apnea test, it turned to be mild. they told me to use a
cpap
machine to clear my symptoms. i used the machine for 6months and nothing changed lol, all symptoms are still the same, brain fog, fatigue, headaches from time to time, feeling pressure in my head, faded vision with eyes burning

PAF and sleep apnea
I know apnea increases AFib issues but wouldn’t it be nice if something as simple as
CPAP
therapy was an answer for some folks?
