How to reduce my events while using my Cpap

Posted by alan bruce @alanbruce, Feb 25, 2019

I track my events, usage, seal and total score daily on Myair which is a Resmed product. I have used a Cpap machine for about 6 months and have had good success however my events seem stay below 5 for a few days and then jumps up to 8 or 9 for a day and then goes back to below 5.. It seems to be a regular pattern however I have not been able to determine why my events go up. Any suggestions are ideas on how to reduce my events would be great.

You’ve probably already do this, but I have to clean my cpap machine every night. I’m just so sensitive to particles and any other floating elements flowing from the machine. I thought I was going to die when I had the Phillips premium machine, as it released so many fibrous particles in the air stream. In the a.m. upon awaking I would sneeze a dozen times with lotsak fluid flowing out of my swollen sinuses. Eventually I could see tiny fibers floating in the water each morning, and then that’s when got another machine. I hope you find the source of your issues.

@chuckvrshek I just had a heartburn study this week and waiting on an upper scope . They think the excess drainage is non acid reflux. So hopefully they can figure out a way to stop the drainage
