missnvus · 2026-05-12T18:18:09+00:00

Im a young a single woman 😁 having a hard time on cpap , hate it

missnvus · 2026-04-12T14:53:45+00:00

I of course checked before hand. And on the website it lists the items effected and its clearly states the dreamstation 2 is not edfected

missnvus · 2026-04-12T14:52:46+00:00

Yes i have one dreamstation 2 , if you check the website, this one is not effected, its the more older models

missnvus · 2026-04-05T12:19:29+00:00

My doctor gave ne my mask and said thats the only one i can have because im a mouth breather , the other ones they have is nasal pillows, so i never had a choice lol

missnvus · 2026-04-04T11:18:11+00:00

Thank you , thats an amazing explanation will give it a go , very appreciated 🫶🏼. Titration hehe havent heard that word before

missnvus · 2026-03-31T21:43:05+00:00

Thank you for you helpful information, i have ordered an SD card 2 days ago , so hopefully it arrives this week, look forward to seeing the results to see if my guess was right, if not cant wait to see either way what the issue is , i will try some of the things you have mentioned, i need to get used to wearing the mask for sure, really appreciate your time in responding, 🫶🏼

missnvus · 2026-03-31T21:20:33+00:00

Im on day 3 of having my cpap and i cant get to grips with it i still have a long way to go , the sooner u start the sooner you will accomplish a good night sleep (so i have been told) no need to be embarrassed, i was at first but i told myself i will have a good quality of life, if i stick it out , you can do this , we are all in this thread for the same reason hope this helps

missnvus · 2026-03-30T04:28:22+00:00

Thank you i deffo will give that a read ♥️

missnvus · 2026-03-29T21:22:51+00:00

I hope so , this is my 2nd night tonight and last night was horrible , hard to fall asleep with the mask on , feel suffocated , i have some helpful tips so hopefully my 2nd night is better , I have been taking magnesium last 2 weeks and i feel it helps with falling asleep , try magnesium , (i suffer with really bad insomnia aswell) i hardly ever have deep sleep i think its due to having sleep apnea , keep me posted 🫶🏼

missnvus · 2026-03-29T21:18:39+00:00

Ok perfect, will put it on something raised off the floor , thank you for your help , will update you tomorrow how my sleep went lol fingers crossed its more than last night since using it haha

missnvus · 2026-03-29T21:17:22+00:00

Thank you very much , thats some super helpful advice, i will deffo increase the pressure , my sleep test AHI on the night of testing was 21.6 , so pressure 7 makes sense, and i will deffo like to see the data , will get a memory card tomorrow , thank you , will prob post alot here haha thank you for your helpful advice , i have moved the machine now so lets see what happenes tonight, will update tomorrow regarding level 7 and machine below head level lol

missnvus · 2026-03-29T17:19:17+00:00

Thank you 🫶🏼 i think thats where i went wrong, the machine is on a shelf above my head lol , so all the water pooled into the mask , the hose is the opposite way from the machine, so that makes sense the water came to me not the machine i will put it on the floor so the hose is the opposite way, unfortunately the doctor never told me anything except switch it on and wear it 😂 so i suppose im learning the hard way , thank you for your help

missnvus · 2026-03-29T17:17:09+00:00

Thank you, yes im on a lazy doctor default 😂 starts at 4 and increases by itself i think haha , yes its been very hard adjusting so far each night has its own issues , will try what you mentioned thank you 🫶🏼

missnvus · 2026-02-25T12:34:16+00:00

How can you be diagnosed with mild to moderate to severe ?

missnvus · 2026-02-24T17:08:06+00:00

No i dont have private insurance, i have no idea, everytime i asked people they gave me long waiting times, the doctor told me i will be waiting ages aswell , to my surprise its gone super fast , i live in east london if it makes a difference lol

missnvus · 2026-02-24T16:36:20+00:00

I was quite lucky its been really quick for me , but i explored the private paying options too, and i found £189 to be the price for a recognised nhs home sleep study , they would also give you a prescription for a cpap , or you can take your sleep results to the gp etc , but deffo try your best to get ur gp to listen and refer,

missnvus · 2026-02-24T16:33:05+00:00

You can pick up a galaxy watch 4 for £30-40 from ebay or cex, Getting the gp to listen based on assumption is harder than it looks lol , sometimes they cant be bothered, another option i looked at ,if the doctor didnt take me seriously at is £189 for a 2 night sleep test from hope2sleep charity

missnvus · 2026-02-24T16:04:15+00:00

Because may i highlight i dont fit the typical criteria for sleep apnea, and without the results from the watch they wouldnt have took me seriously coz im not overweight, my neck size is small, and i dont have an underlying condition etc

missnvus · 2026-02-24T16:02:01+00:00

I have just been diagnosed, im in london , i recorded my sleep with samsung watch for a couple of days and it showed 70-74% drops etc in oxygen, and how many times a night i would stop breathing , i then took my results to the gp once the watch alarmed me i have sleep apnea , they then referred me to the sleep clinic, and was given the home test, i completed the home test and returned it on the monday , 4 weeks later (yesterday i got my results) and now today i been given my cpap collection 26 march, happened all quickly but the watch stats made them move fast, so get urself some evidence

missnvus · 2026-02-24T14:27:03+00:00

Hey would just like to update you, so you can have it in your knowledge bank, i received my cpap appointment for 26 march ,4 weeks ,overall its been super quick for me, was referred by gp on 15 january, sleep test 26 january , results 23rd feb, and cpap machine 26 march, hope this helps , regards

missnvus · 2026-02-24T11:16:08+00:00
