#CPAP

2025-06-05

Wieso bin ich eigentlich die ganzen Jahre nicht drauf gekommen, die Bürste für den #CPAP Schlauch mit der Bohrmaschine zu verbinden? Das funktioniert ja megageil und gründlicher als manuell. Wieder was gelernt. Und heute Nacht wird wieder sauber geatmet.

Does anyone who uses nasal pillows find they get pressure on the septum? Sometimes it can get quite uncomfortable and tonight it's been bad enough to have to take the mask off and could be what's wakened me. Other nights it's not such a problem. Is this a known issue? I'm not aware that I have a particularly huge septum 😄 Mask is a small. #cpap #sleepapnoea

My first #CPAP therapy anomaly happened... I woke up at 5 this morning with the mask set aside. According to my SD card via the OSCAR app, it was about 4 hours before that, that I must have taken it off in my sleep, or I got up to pee and was so sleepy I failed to put it back on. In any case, I dont remember being awake at that time. I put it back on right away and got about 4.5 hours of therapy total.

As long as it is not a regular habit, I won't worry about it. I've heard that some people put on oven mitts to sleep until they train themselves not to take off the mask while sleeping.

4am. Can’t sleep. Resorted to ear plugs. My breathing is too loud #cpap #insomnia

I just don't get it.

Weaning myself off cigarettes (trying to #StopSmoking), which despite my brain telling me is going to be awful, isn't actually as bad as my brain is telling me, but yet my events on my #CPAP machine go up when I've had 4 ciggies during the day as opposed to the usual packet of 20.

Example: night on normal ciggies: 2.3 events per hour
Last night on 4 ciggies: 5.6 events per hour.

But persist I must!

I don't know what I did to have a 0.2 AHI last week but I should see if I can repeat it. XD This is last 30 days #CPAP #SleepApnea

CPAP week 1 passed with no major issues. I've been using it all night long and getting high scores from the Bluetooth connected app. Feeling less drowsy in afternoons too. Some minor tickling irritation of my nose while I'm using it, and the first couple exhales require more force, but otherwise good. A lot of people have a horrible time with these gadgets. I guess I feel lucky! #CPAP #ObstructiveSleepApnea #sleep #apnea #therapy

Does anyone have tips on where in the US to get less expensive mask cushions for a #cpap ? I've got a ResMed F20 system but I keep using the mask cushions way longer than the recommended 30 days since $60 each seems like something I should hold onto longer. I'm aware there are less expensive options on Amazon but I'd rather avoid them if possible.

LULZ, my sleep doctor is useless. The soonest their #CPAP supplies office can send me a new mask, hose, tank, whatever, is "7 to 14 business days." So 3 weeks. And I haven't hit my deductible yet, so I'm out a few hundred already. How about this: I just buy my gear online and get it by Friday?

Ohh the Fisher & Paykel Solo Mask is finally out in Canada!

I think this is the first non-tech item I’ve been so eager for to come out.

Forget macrumors[.]com, we need cpaprumors[.]com.

Ich habe in den letzten Tagen auf Tiktok immer mal wieder Einblicke in die CPAP-Bubble bekommen... Allerdings sind die Menschen alle aus den USA, und die Tips und Tricks mit Blick auf Healthcare entsprechend fragwürdig...

Aber da kam bei mir die Frage auf:
Kennt von euch vielleicht jemand Europäische, oder sogar deutsche Communities? 😄

1. I've managed two nights in a row with my #CPAP machine on and feel like doing a lap of victory as I thought I'd never get to this point.

2. Nice trip to Kenilworth Castle yesterday and it's vaguely relevant to my son's upcoming history GCSE.

3. I still have Easter chocolate left 🐇🍫🥚

I wish the travel CPAP was more comfortable and I didn't have to pack the larger CPAP for longer trips.

I tried using the travel CPAP for a week long trip and it was genuinely miserable.

Frustratingly, in many countries finding distilled water is hard, so it's actually easier to pack a water filter- but that is large and bulky.

I don't know how people can sleep with a #cpap. I have tried 2 different masks and they were uncomfortable. I think I am going to lose 80 lbs.

Allerlei tips voor als je masker lekt: t.ly/apneumaskerlekkage

@jbowen Honestly it's comments like this that have kept me going over the last six months as I've tried to get to grips with my #CPAP. Finally I'm starting to make progress but not enough to see the benefits in my energy levels.

@BobDendry To put that in context I've had the #CPAP for six months so it's taken a lot of trial and error, repeat visits to the sleep clinic, will power and, unusually for me, tears to get to this stage.

1. Whole Moo World has nutella milkshake! Off to get some in a minute.

2. Finally managed to fall asleep wearing my #CPAP machine last night. Had to take it off at 2am but still, that's progress. Feels huge actually.

3. Relistening to #mygrandmasdiaries from the start and loving it. It's a #podcast of the diaries of a teenager in 1930s Arkansas presented by her grandson and a friend and is a fascinating #history lesson.
