I have been on c-pap treatment for a little over 2 months. I am still just as tired all the time as I was before the treatment. Is this to be expected.?

Answer by Angela W
This is not common at all. Most patients feel the exact opposite. In fact, most patients feel immediate relief. You should go back to your Dr. Maybe some adjustments need to be made. You may not have the machine set at good setting for you. Also, if your mask does not have a tight fit to help seal it then it won’t really work at all. A loose connection could be a non-conforming or not tight mask and even a loose connection. Contact your Dr. and he can help check those adjustments. He/She may even take away or add inspiratory pressure.

Good luck.

Could it be that? http://mysleepapneatreatment.com/822/i-think-i-may-have-sleep-apnea-sometimes-i-wake-up-gasping-for-air-not-a-lot-though-could-it-be-that/ http://mysleepapneatreatment.com/822/i-think-i-may-have-sleep-apnea-sometimes-i-wake-up-gasping-for-air-not-a-lot-though-could-it-be-that/#comments Tue, 08 Jun 2010 05:07:50 +0000 Alan http://mysleepapneatreatment.com/822/i-think-i-may-have-sleep-apnea-sometimes-i-wake-up-gasping-for-air-not-a-lot-though-could-it-be-that/ Last night, I woke up with pains in my chest(what felt like heart area) and when I took a few deep breaths, the pain began to go away and I fell back to sleep. Could this be sleep apnea and because I wasnt breathing, my heart was not functioning properly, and therefore causing the pain?? I’m scared about this.

I havne’t been to sleep since the day before, so In other words I missed last night only and now I am onto the next with no sleep and I still can’t fall asleep. I do not take any drugs of any kind and I haven’t had a coffee for a bout a week now, I am a healthy male with no drug usage history and still I am laying here in bed and I just can’t fall asleep
This has never happend to me before. I have before missed a night of sleep but by next afternoon I would be falling a sleep standing as anyone would.. It feels like the longer I stay awake the more I think and when I’m thinking I just can’t sleep. it’s like a circul the longer I’m up the more reason I can’t sleep.. as I said laying here in bed really trying hard to fall a sleep but the harder I do the less of a chance I am able too,, I know mum says a hot glass of milk always helps her..I know I am tired but I don’t feel tired though I feel wierd, like a really loud truck has gone passed my ear, what do I do
