CPAP Machines and Chest Infections
However, yesterday I gave everything a clean and had a look inside the
CPAP
unit where I found a patch of mold on one of the rubber couplings. Has anyone else ever had a chest infection from their
CPAP
machine? Any tips on keeping it clean?

Afib, sleep apnea and diverticulitis from aerophagia
I have been using
cpap
and bipap machines for some years for the apnea, and have a problem of swallowing air (aerophagia). Before the improvements in
cpap
technology, I would wake up after a few hours with intestinal gas pains.

Just looking for help like most of you.
My wife confirms this and it shows up in the flow rate pattern recorded on my
CPAP
machine. When I review my
CPAP
report each morning, it usually indicates I had a great night of sleep with little or no breathing problems, but I feel tired most of the day.

Long time no talk!
Needless to say I need a
cpap
. Really feeling hopeful this might be the missing piece of why my anxiety goes so up and down for no reason.

3rd and final chance of cardioversion
I’ve worked hard this time and lost 4 stone much more active , and now have a
cpap
machine which I didn’t have when I had last cvs. Also had my varapamil reduced to 120mg from 240mg and feel fine, my bp is perfect too.

BUPRENORPHINE SUBLINGUAL BREAKDOWN AFTER 9 MONTHS TOTAL TREATMENT SUCCESS.
Normally with tiredness I would switch it off, put on my
CPAP
mask (I also have sleep apnea) and settle down to sleep.

Salt Therapy using a CPAP machine
I have been reading of the benefits of Salt Therapy using a
CPAP
machine. Essentially, a little salt is added to the water reservoir and breath in the mineralised air at night. Its supposed to reduce inflammation within the lungs. Has anyone tried this?

New Symptom or at least an exacerbation of an old one: pulsatile tinnitus.
It could also be dryness from using a
CPAP
machine for sleep apnea. Basically I am thinking if no-one has experienced similar this is a symptom I should be following up with a GP. (Yawn).

Can’t bear that CPAP mask - try a didgeridoo!
The articles that pop up when you’re not really looking. How about a didgeridoo to help with sleep apnoea? I wonder if other wind instruments might help. It’s an old one… https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1360393/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email

Aerophagia with cpap
I have a history of swallowing air while using
Cpap
/Bipap machines. I had to stop for some years because the gas pains would wake me whiling sleeping. Around that time I developed an umbilical hernia and feel the aerophagia was at least partly to blame.

Home monitoring for RLS?
I am able to monitor my apnoea events per hour using my
CPAP
data card and the OSCAR software but my research has turned up nothing similar for RLS. Does anyone know of any way of monitoring RLS at home?

struggling with CPAP
After 8 months still struggling with the
CPAP
. Switched to nasal mask but still waken with cough and congestion after about an hour. Humidity does help. Tried saline spray and cortisone nasal spray. Next visit is with ENT. Sleep doctor thinks I am non-compliant. I want the
CPAP
to work!

Breathing - Breathlessness
Just been seen in Thoracic and Respiratory, whilst my SpO2 is averaging 93%, and having sleep tests, they say I am borderline OSA, but do not think I should go on a
CPAP
, as more heart related, but will review in 6 months time. Do you suffer breathlessness, how do you cope.
