Does the CPAP Mask cause puffiness and dark circles under your eyes?

Thank you for responding so quickly! I do drink quite a bit of water before bed. I have never tied the two together. There are some pills that I have to take with a full glass of water and most of the time I drink Sleepy Time Tea before bed. I will try to reduce the water and see what happens.
As for the heated tube, I have always used it and the humidifier but I raised the number during the winter. In north Florida it can still get cold...it is not cold anymore! It is 92 right now! 🙂 I will bring the heat and humidifier all the way down and limit water and see what happens.
I am curious as to what John Bishop will say. He really helped me in my early months of tolerating the CPAP.
I don't like these raccoon eyes....but again...there are more important things to worry about.
Thanks again...CeCe55

BTW, I meant "take" not "drink" your pills. 😁

Maybe drink all pills that need a full glass of water a little earlier in the evening. I have moved some of my meds to about halfway between dinner and bedtime and it has helped, not with my eyes necessarily but with my sleep and AHI results. Also, remember that a full glass of water unless specified is only 8 oz, just a cup. When I hear a full glass of water I think of tall glass, but that is inaccurate. I doubt an 8 oz cup of Sleepy Time Tea will mess up your eyes, but again, you could drink it a bit earlier also and give it time to make you sleepy. 😉 Keep us posted on your results.
