cpap
My friend's company replaces his CPAP supplies whenever he asks. They give you instructions on how to keep it clean. Obviously nobody wants to do it, but there are consequences. Otherwise they would let you do it the easy way. Now you have unexplained lung nodules, so you will have to get a biopsy to find out what is going on. Nobody here can help you.
Mi first central apnea dated from 2003. It was 1,00 AHI/hour. The Polysomnography (PSG) showed that i have alpha wave intrusion. The told me it was not an isue and i had to care for me weight, 93 kilo at that time.
In 2016 i had a lot of intention to fall a sleep while driving a car.
So a new polysomnography was perform, and i had now central sleep apnea at 20,7 AHI/hour and a mixed sleep disorder (not enough slow wave sleep) so i was order to a CPAP with pressure 9 cm/H2O.
Pressure support ventilation, where air under gentle pressure is passed into the airways keeping it patent. A CPAP delivers continuous pressure for both inhaling and exhaling. As this supplies continuous amount of air pressure the person has to exhale against this extra pressure. This makes it imperfect or unsuitable for certain people, such as those who are suffering from neuromuscular diseases.
I had a mild heart attack in 2005 and was told when they did a heart cath that there are no blockages and that my MI was probably due to coronary spasm. I have been hospitalized repeatedly since the heart attack and have tried all the usual medications such as verapamil, cardizem, imdur, metoprolol, lisinopril, norvasc and magnesium. I do not tolerate cardizem or imdur well. The angina was not controlled until they started me on Ranexa last year because the pain was constant and severe.
Does low LV function (30-35% ef) from ischemic MI, further reduce with age? Is the progration of disease faster at older age?
Im 41 y.o. male, i had recently an MI and underwent rescue PTCA and stenting of mid LAD and OM. post infarct/stent echo showed hypokinesia of ant IVS from base to mid.
Hi - 49yo male in otherwise good health, had an mi and placement of 3 stents in RCA. Was told that there was no damage to my heart, and have returned to all activity including hi-intensity workouts (which I was doing pre-mi). I've put on about 30 "pity-pounds" (from 185 to 215) and despite increase in exercise and near-saintly eating habits, having a hard time losing. I suspect that Toprol is causing this problem.
Can the same section of muscle have blood supplied from two different sources and when one of the sources is blocked due to MI, some layer of same muscle continues to get blood, limiting the scaring to only that layer of muscle which is deprived of blood supply.

My wife uses a cpap machine with moisture every night. She has had two bouts with pneumonia this winter which she never had before using the cpap machine. Questions: Can breathing in excess moist air into the lungs by means of the cpap machine overload the lungs with moisture and cause problems?
Shhhhhhh - your brain and body are listening. Give yourself some positive self talk, such as...
I can do ANYTHING for just 30 days.
Sleeping in my own home and bed will be nothing like in that lab.
I'm going to take advantage of this change to get 30 days of real quality sleep.
I'm glad that CPAP increases my likelihood of a good surgical outcome and recovery.
I'm glad the next 30 days I will be at reduced risk of heart attack and stroke.

was wanting to know if there is a gooood neorologist in or around detriot mi or even in ohio that knows about chiari
I noticed I had gained over 6 pounds since starting CPAP. After just one night without the CPAP I dropped 3 pounds, which I believe is all fluids.
My question is this: Could CPAP use cause your kidneys not to filter out fluids from your blood? When using CPAP I do not get up during the night to urinate. After one night without using CPAP I did get up to go to the bathroom, my weight dropped by 3 pounds and the pain is greatly reduced.
I have been using a CPAP machine for almost 3 months. From the night I used it I did not wake to go to the bathroom during the night. Although this was nice, I developed a problem immediately (from the first night) with swelling in my legs (calves, ankles, feet) and in my hands. I did NOT mention it to the sleep doctor because It was a month until my follow-up appointment and I never saw it listed as a side effect of CPAP therapy in materials I read.
I had to discontinue using my cpap, due to chronic lung infections. Changing the tubing, keeping it spotless, did not help prevent infection for me. Stopping the cpap treatment, is the only thing that prevented the chronic lung infections...and I always used the humitifer, which never helped prevent any infection... I regret ever having the sleep study and I regret what all the money and time it cost me, and the suffering of 3 years of lung infections...I am so done using the cpap treatment!
