Goodnight?
I am sleeping with a CPAP machine tonight. I am nervous. It is weird. I am afraid it will dry my throat. I am also afraid my mouth will fall open and weird things happen. LOL! AND I am also afraid I will wake up and freak out and rip the thing off my face and pull my stitches out in my eye.
I have issues.

Mine pushed too much air into my stomach and I haven't used it in 6 months. My plan is to hold onto it and keep telling myself I'll start using it one day, and then let my wife sell it in a yard sale after I have a heart attack in a few years.

I have been using one for over 4 years . Hardly can sleep without it.
It was a bit cumbersome to get used to, but Oh man to get deep sleep again.
I am on my 2nd machine. this one has a water resevoir to allow moist air to be breathed.

Give it some time, it takes some getting used to, and if it's pushing too much air, see your Doctor and have it adjusted (my wifes had to be adjusted to push MORE because she was feeling like she wasn't able to get enough air it's different for every person.
If it drys you out, then get one with a humidifier on it, mine did that at first then the Dr told me to turn up the humidifier ( 
) now it's much better. If you mouth falls open, you can get a chin strap, (some masks come with this built in, others it's separate) or you can get a mask that goes over the mouth and nose (my SIL has one of those).
Once you get used to it, you'll hate to go without it, I'm much more rested even with as little sleep as I tend to get.

Everything went well until around 3am... I felt like I couldn't breath. I thought the machine had turned off but when I put my hand to the vent I could feel air blowing. It must have been set too low at that point. I couldn't deal with it so I took it off at 3am. Other than that... I slept good and did feel some better this morning AND I actually woke up earlier than usual ready to get up!

Rose had that problem too, they just adjusted it and turned it up a little. Call your Dr. and let them know.

Thanks God for a good first night. I really struggled at first but now I could not live without it until I get healed.Ilovebigcats wrote:Everything went well until around 3am...

The sunny side:
It comes in handy in the winter, you can just go ahead and cover your head up too. Also, when the hubby has the lights on, its easy to just cover the head up and go on and sleep.

Does anyone else have gas issues? I felt like my stomach and chest we full of air. Yuck.
Yup. See post above. I did move a lot faster in the morning from the new internal jet pack it gave me.
