Avatar f tn What's a pregnancy pillow and what's the use? Has anyone used one any reviews? Comments?
1555684 tn?1294434646 Many elected surgery over CPAP and ended up STILL needing CPAP. It takes time for the medical community to get a good picture of a new treatment's long term effectiveness. I would consider the device you mention, but not for a very long time. Since weight is not your issue, you could very well have a jaw structure that is more narrow than what allows comfortable breathing once the tissues relax during sleep.
Avatar n tn I have been on cpap for 2 weeks now, I have had 4 different masks. I can fall asleep now no problem, but am waking up during the night and taking my mask off. It is getting very frustrating as I thought that this was a magical cure for tiredness but am getting so put off over the whole thing I feel like just giving up, have others had the same type of feeling?
5054005 tn?1362922551 It takes a while to find a mask or nasal pillows that work for you. You just have to keep trying. I made several appointlements with my Durable Medical Equipment provider to go there, and try on a couple of masks before selecting one and trying it. After 8 years, I'm about to start my third nasal pillow, the Philips DreamWear. With this one, I was a 5 month beta tester some time ago, so I have prior experience using it.
Avatar m tn I use a CPAP machine, with a nasal mask setting is 15. I do believe it makes me sleep better. However it causes serious gas especially in the morning. I know others have reported this problem but have yet to see a good answer.
Avatar f tn I use a snoogle from babies r us and a body pillow along with a cervical pillow bought from my chiropractor. I wedge the body pillow under my back side. The snoogle goes in between my legs and tucks under my tummy and i hold it against my chest. I have much better luck sleeping with all of them.
1054090 tn?1343965695 If you do have sleep apnea, the treatment is that you will sleep with a CPAP machine. It stands for Continuos Positive Air Pressure. You wear a mask that blows air down your passages to keep them from closing when you sleep. Cause when they close is when you stop breathing. Id it is determined you have sleep apnea it is vital that you wear the cpap eveytime!! You can die from sleep apnea just as easily as a baby can die from sids.
107693 tn?1252864443 I am having a hard time gettting use to the CPAP. I asked for the nose pillow when i got the results, thinking that i would like it better, It has been two weeks so i asked for the small mask. I was also told that i need to use CPAP with the water. When i wake up I find the need to take it off, then when i go to put it back I get very anxious, palpitations or it feels that my heart is racing. So i sleep without it. I have thyrothis with six nodules. had a FNA results were negative.
287996 tn?1312023682 Hey chevy man. I've seen you around here for a long time. How about more details on the elevated pulse. How fast is it? and When does it occur? I too wear CPAP. I've used it for the last 6 years now, and it no doubt has saved me from an early, painful demise as I had very severe obstructive sleep apnea. Prior ro getting on it, I had been waking up with a pounding pulse in the middle of the night. It wasn't SVT (which I had), but an elevated and pounding pulse.
Avatar f tn we have gotten mixed reviews on it...some like others do not..a pillow is very personal...as to which one is right for you just as selecting your Dr is very personal. There is also a old thread you can locate to read using the search this community feature. I like using a lumbar pillow by Homedics....it has memory foam and was a perfect size for me post op.....for travel in a car I used a very fluffy bed pillow which was called a reshape-able pillow at Target....only 10.00...
Avatar n tn I have sleep apnea and was using the cpap machine but used it only once cause i could not at all sleep with a mask on my mouth and I could not aford to pay for it. So I returned it ,but now i cant sleep and during the day at abut after 12 noon i feel really tires and headaches and very sleepy . So i take caffine pills everyday to stay awake. I know taking pills is no the answer and I should be using the machine. My question is is there any other way to cure my problem with out the machine.
Avatar f tn So I opted for a full body pillow plus a regular pillow to tuck behind me. Until the last week or two, I had no trouble sleeping. Now that I'm over 30 weeks-it would take a horse tranquilizer to put me out for longer than an hour at a time.
Avatar f tn Have any of you bought a pregnancy pillow? If so which? How much was it? And was it worth it? I find myself waking up on my back a lot lately. So I was thinking of buying a new pillow to help prop myself up. Should I get just a regular pillow or a special one?
Avatar f tn Did you try the nasal pillow or nasal cannula? The nasal pillow goes over your entire nose and the cannula goes right up into your nostrils.
Avatar f tn Hi you are not alone i to have Sleep Apnea i also on a CPAP machine are you , I think i am the opposite to you i cannot sleep without medication never mind can't have it all nice, please feel free to drop me a note if you like once again you are not alone.........
439553 tn?1210776816 Will i more than likely get a CPAP mask to help me sleep? Has anyone else had this same thing happen to them? What do you think the possible treatment will be? i am just tired of being tired all the time. i want a normal life back!
Avatar m tn The reason i ask is because i dread sleeping now. I inevitably wake up totally blind or fuzzy in whichever side i'm sleeping on. I realize it's the pressure i'm putting on my eyes sleeping on my stomach into the pillow, i'm not totally ignorant. But i can't control the way i toss and turn at night having sleep apnea, and a very severe form of panic/anxiety attacks lately does not make sleeping a joy as it should. I actually dread waking up in the morning because of it.
Avatar m tn I have been using CPAP machine for over a yr. now and I have seen no improvement in my sleep. I use the nose pillow mask because of me being a side sleeper but I find me waking up with my mouth open and sometimes there is drool. Should I try a full mask to see if that would be any better for me?
1054665 tn?1305508455 Have Herpes of the mouth, and awhile back had a pretty bad break out, it spread to the inside of my nose. Now there seems to be a scar there, it hurts me whenever its touched inside and or out. I have sleep apnea, and sleep with a cpap, the kind that shouldn't hurt the nostril pillow. However this does hurt me, even the air hurts. Is there anything I can do? Is it best if I try an on the nose mask?
620048 tn?1358018235 Just wanted to add that my nurse practioner that works with my MS Dr. is going to get me into see one of the pulmonoligists at UCSF ..this makes me happy. There are not many of them around, at least good ones.
3360193 tn?1365871889 ve read some reviews that say just swaddle your baby for the first couple months, other reviews say cover them with a blanket until you put them in the sleep bag......any one know?
Avatar f tn My sister said I shouldn't buy a breast feeding pillow as I can't use it when I'm out and and about but the one I want (my breast friend) has excellent reviews Can anyone help?
4774515 tn?1359650004 My friend did and she said she loved it. I've been debating in whether I want one or not since they're a little pricey.
Avatar m tn I have used a cpap for 10 months. My most prevalent problem is that the exterior of my nose tickles as though a feather is being brushed against it. I use a full face mask most of the time. I have tried applying Vaseline and various other moisturizers to no avail. The only thing that has seemed to help to a limited degree is "AquaPhor" daubed on my nose, not rubbed on.
