Last Nights experience re cold&CPAP


Posted by Barb (Seattle) on January 29, 2008 at 09:06:01:

Well, I used my CPAP last night through a cold. I have a full face mask and just breathed through my mouth. My mouth is so dry this morning though. Uncomfortable feeling, but I tried sleeping without the CPAP, and I just kept waking up...almost felt like I wasn't sleeping. Had a claustrophobic feeling at first because I couldn't breathe through my nose, but persevered thru it. First time, really in all these years, I usually sleep without it during a cold *ducks*
