Ok I am going nuts Last night my count was 114 events per hour! How do you breath when a person (me) has this many? Anyone else have this high count? Could it be my machine? I have a Resmed 11 with full face mask. The bridge of my nose is really hurting me. I have osteoarthritis ND grow bone like no tomorrow! Will I die if I stop?? HELP PLEASE ANYBODY Jackie

I would be reaching out to your sleep specialist you may need your machine adjusted.
I have 53 per minute and going to pick up my CPAP today. Neeedless to say, I have great anxiety about this. Any pointers?

@msflygirlnortherncan, I agree with @gloaming that you really should talk with sleep medicine doctor or therapist. I've had different full face CPAP masks that have caused extreme redness and pain on the bridge of my nose and have tried quite a few different masks until I found one that works for me. I have been fortunate enough to have a sleep medicine PA that has given me some tips that have helped. They are really your best resource when it comes to choosing the best CPAP mask that is a good fit for you.
