CPAP MACHINE
Morning all, a question or two on
CPAP
machines. Graham is now having a trial of one, we are only on day 3 and last night was a bit better, but although he is getting to sleep, apart from the several times he gets up to the loo!

CPAP Pillow
Hey, It's been a year now I'm using a
CPAP
machine as I suffer from sleep apnea. But most of the days, the
CPAP
tubes and masks are being misplaced while sleeping. I'm in the way of depression as I lost my sleep. So my doctor recommended me to use a
CPAP
pillow.

Severe Asthma & Sleep Apnoea
My consultant said I was desaturating 30 times an hour and now need to lose weight and go on
CPAP
. Does this mean I know longer have asthma? Do I continue to use the Airsonnet LASER? Does anyone else have asthma and sleep apnoea and have you got better?

Colitis, Terminal iletis or Crohns?
Later on that year I was also diagnosed with severe sleep apnoea and now use a
CPAP
machine. From 2018 onwards I began to suffer from constipation and sickness. I had pain in my upper right quadrant with mid and upper back pain. My GP referred me to a Colorectal surgeon. He was lovely.

First time on this forum
I just started using a
CPAP
machine and I am not thrilled. Looking to connect with people with similar health problems and learn more about their experience.

PD and Sleep Apnea
So it made me wonder is there a connection with sleep apnea and PD, and if you use a
CPAP
or similar device, have you seen any benefits from using it?

Confused, angry, sad
The only thing I can come up with is the Phillips
CPAP
machine I have used for years which has been recalled. The machines filters break down giving off carcinogenic gases and particulates which can cause...SURPRISE kidney damage. I am so angry, sad and confused about what to do.

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and RLS - article
I am awaiting delivery and fitting of a
CPAP
machine (there is currently a global shortage due to one manufacturer's recall and the global computer chip shortage). In the meantime my chief of research (wife) found this very informative article from the European Respiratory Review.

Re learning to use CPAP
I was using a full face
CPAP
, took me a while to get used to it, several months when I was diagnosed with poly myalgia rheumatica PMR, which affected my shoulders and for about 6 weeks I couldn't use my mask.

Irreversible brain damage?
I am thinking that the huge dose of Pramipexole has cause irreparable brain damage and that, even if I can get my hands on a supply of Buprenorphine, (I have mild COPD and use a
Cpap
forsleep Apnea) it is unlikely to do more than mask the damage? None the less, I want to try!!!
