Hi first time I am posting. I was diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and Covid 19 in December of 2020. Started
using my Res Med Airsense 10 shortly afterwards, while I was suffering through Covid for more than a month.
I never had an in person fitting for my C-Pap machine, it was a virtual visit. I also didn't see my Pulmonologist
until April. During the first month I was using the C-Pap I had multiple issues. I had water and bits of something coming into my mouth. The person I talked too that did the fitting said it was probably nothing and to keep using the machine. The machine just kept getting worse -noise wise- and my wife was being kept awake. I was not sleeping very well, even though the monitor showed my breathing was not stopping as often. I stopped using before I had my appointment with my Doctor. We discussed other options such as Inspire. I did have an ENT appt. and it seemed to be a good choice. My Pulmonologist saw 2 spots on my lung he wanted me to get checked. I was diagnosed with Lung Cancer in September. I was never a smoker, had no reason I should have gotten Lung Cancer. I asked if Covid could have caused it, he said it is causing a lot of different illnesses.
I also asked about the C-Pap machine as a cause, he didn't think that it should be that. Then in October I found out about the Phillips recall while researching Lung Cancer treatments and found out the C-Pap machine could cause Cancer. I was diagnosed with a very rare Cancer, Large & Small Cell Endocrine Carcinoma. The C-Pap along with Covid 19 at the same time is the only thing that makes sense to me why I have Cancer. Has anybody else been diagnosed with Cancer after using the ResMed Air Sense 10? Please comment. As a side note after Chemo and Immunotherapy(ongoing), I have been told the Cancer is about 80% reduced.
