I keep taking my CPAP off in my sleep



Recommended Posts

I put my mask on before I sleep, it's comfortable, I've been doing it for 4 months now, and lately I wake up and it's on the floor. I have no idea when/how it happens. Is that a sign that I maybe don't need it anymore? I am on a 6, but ramp from 4 each night. What should I do? Anyone else do this?

i've been taking it off towards morning because it isn't keeping a good seal. makes all kinds of noise and scares the c@#$ out of me. the only person that can answer if you need it or not is your sleep doctor. but i am relying on my hubby since my apnea doctor retired. he says i don't snore anymore. but i feel comfortable when i go to sleep so will wear it for at least 20 more wt. loss lbs.

Probably not getting a good seal due to your wt loss. I believe I'd ask for a new sleep study to see if it's still needed.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
