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!, I am having to get up to adjust the mask, or in a couple of instances

seeking recommendations on CPAP machine temperature/humidity settings
I am still trying to get used to my CPAP machine (AirSense 11 by Reliable Respiratory). The Auto settings don't work for me. The air is too dry and I can't sleep for more than about 45 min. The temperature in the room is usually 62-64F (16-18C deg) and the humidity is about 60%-70%. How humid should

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. And I checked to buy and found various

PD and Sleep Apnea
I was diagnosed with moderate sleep apnea in the fall of last year (cronic fatigue), but the machine has not been available in my area, and are just now starting to arrive. 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

First time on this forum
I am a 68 years old male with insomnia and apnea, both obstructive and central, for years. 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.

Confused, angry, sad
I was diagnosed with CKD last week. My GFR is 45. I have no risk factors for it. 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

Once again unable to sleep. Thinking about my diet. I’m having some stomach and digestive investigations. My stomach is now so distended and solid with it. It looks like I have someone else’s abdomen and my own skinny arms and legs. It’s hurting my back. I am determined to boost my health this year by

Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) and RLS - article
My recent sleep study concluded I have mild-to-moderate obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), in addition to RLS, of course. It turns out there is a higher than average prevalence of RLS in OSA patients (~8%), although they are not causally related. I am awaiting delivery and fitting of a CPAP machine (there

Phyllocontin Withdrawal. / Uniphyllin Continus
Good afternoon all. This is my first post so apologies if it is inappropriately placed. Does anyone know ? Why Phyllocontin was withdrawn ? I have only heard 'no longer commercially available' but would like to know more. Whether there is any research available on the impact of the withdrawal of Phyllocontin

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. Now that's under control I am having problems re learning how to use my mask and I just can't

About 'good' oils for NASH and NAFLD
I haven't been officially diagnosed, but believe this is my issue and has been for some time. I am going to overhaul diet and do what I can.... but I have a question about oils. I know all veg canola etc must be avoided. High quality olive oil is on your list to take daily. What about coconut oil
