Surgery Anniversary 7/30/12 Just tell your doctor to order an AUTO CPAP with pressure settings of 5-18 for seven nights and it should be FREE from the company you got your CPAP from and that will tell if you still need it!!! It's ALOT cheaper than going back to the sleep lab!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

aNuMe 59 Posted September 7, 2012 What is bipap? Cookie got it rite my body was poisoning itself because I could not exhale deep enough because of the pressure from the air, so my doctor switched me to bipap in which when you breathe out the machine kinda releases so you can exhale completely.

I got a loaner until my odsp (Ontario disability support program-Canadian) approved mine... Not sure if that option is available to you? You will be SO astounded by the results!!

Jordan Bee 13 Posted September 11, 2012 I was recently diagnosed with sleep apnea. Just about 6 weeks ago. I do wear my cpap and use the nose pillow mask. I have had a hard time adjusting to it though! I still feel tired everyday but not as much I guess. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
