Day 1 of the CPAP Chronicles - the Ventilating

Mar 07, 2018 09:15

I got my new CPAP machine yesterday and used it last night. DuPage Medical Group sold me a state-of-the-art unit that has everything except a coffee maker and a massage wand attached. It's also technically not a CPAP - the air pressure is Adjustable not Constant.

This later feature gave me a bit of heartburn last night after my 2 AM toilet break. The pressure kept wanting to ramp up faster than I went to sleep. My therapeutic pressure is high enough that if you're wide awake it feels like a firehose of air coming at you. So I ended up resetting the system a couple of times. I need to take time and Read the Bleeping Manual before tonight.
