C Pap machine use


Posted by Maxie on May 07, 1999 at 19:57:18:

I have been using a C Pap machine since August for sleep apnea and have been experienceing a great deal of intestinal gas. Can the two be related? Can some of the air that is forced in to keep the throat open travel through the body and cause flatuence???
