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.

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?

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 wouldnāt it be nice if something as simple as
CPAP
therapy was an answer for some folks?

Glycopyrrolate is working for spit, phlegm and coughing
And the
CPAP
mask is empty of spit!! I was concerned about side effects but so far none. Just wanted to share in case it can help someone else.

Cpap and afib
Tomorrow I see my cardiologist and I'm curious what he'll recommend since I'm currently being tested for sleep apnea that test is pending I may need to start
CPAP
therapy. Has anyone in the community experience
CPAP
therapy and how that helps with Afib?

Cpap and inhaler interaction
Cpap
and Fostair inhaler interaction For the last year or so I have had problems with my
CPAP
Autoset increasing the pressure to uncomfortable levels. I have found out that this pressure increase has been caused by the change of inhaler to a lower dosage steroid.

Further to RLS has stopped
My full regime for treatment of RLS is as follows: - Sleep hygiene- in my case as I have sleep apnoea - using my
CPAP
machine and having a yellow light on my IPhone which is timed to come on at 6pm and stops the bright light of my mobile telling my brain it is daytime) the yellow tinge actually makes

Just a self observation....
Night was the worst as I would wake up coughing - which would trigger the AF - which would trigger the Myasthenia and I couldnāt use the
CPAP
so it was touch and go a few times as to whether call paramedics. The worry for my husband then caused him to go into AF so what a pair we were at 3am!

The story so far....
I must also say that during the last year I have also been diagnosed with sleep apnea and now wear a
CPAP
machine when I sleep but still suffer with extreme fatigue. This morning I have had the blood test and I will get the results back next week.

Has anyone had an increase in anxiety/panic attacks when taking Cytomel?
I started on
CPAP
therapy mid-February and have been feeling a lot better. With sleep apnea, your body isn't able to go into deep restorative sleep.

Up at 7 AM, but not quite; then it's noon?!?!
That thought has been on my mind since Thanksgiving when approx 50% of the weekend seemed to be focused on
CPAP
-related issues (now there's some scintillating dinnertime conversation).
