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.
