I create this topic for comments on the course of my adaptation to CPUP.
I have difficulty sleeping when I have a mask for breathing under pressure. I usually sleep 1-2-3 hours in a mask for 2 weeks. Recently, I slept once 5 and 8 hours in a mask! But difficulties remain.
Task: will learn to sleep with the CPUP apparatus and feel a resting day. Now this cannot be done well.
About me.
I am a man, 34 years old. I live in the R.F. Weight 271 pounds. Growth 6.1 foot.
Now I am taking a course of antidepressants (fluoxetine) and from 12/23/2023 My doctor prescribed me a drug to improve sleep (GydrOXYzin).
Cardiorespirator monitoring
The total sleep time is 05:10:10. Suitable for breathing analysis 04:21:20.
Apneo/hypopnoe: time = 01: 08: 44. Number = 153. Index 35/hour.
Apnea: Time = 00: 46: 56. Number = 117. Index 27/hour.
Obstructive: time = 00: 23: 57. Number33. The index is 100%.
Central: 0. 0%.
Hypopnoe: time 00:21:48. Number = 36. Index 8/hour.
Hypopnoe = 8/hour. Quantity = 36. Maximum duration = 00:02:31. General = 01: 08: 44.
Apnoe = 27/hour. Number 117. Maximum duration = 00:02:00. General = 00: 46: 56
Obstructive = 100%. Central = 0%. Duration General = 00: 23: 57
Susperation index 36/hour. Average Desecration = 5.2%. The average desalation level is 92.6%. Saturation <90% 00:14:02. Saturation <89% 00:03:43.

Equipment.
Car CPUP Reset Ibreeze 20a Pro
Mask is full front bmc-Fm1a
Nose.
My nose was broken 5 years ago, the nasal partition remained a curve and usually one nostril breathes.
A cyst is detected on the mucous gland in the nasal passage.
The curvature of the nasal septum and the bone growth on it were revealed.
They can operate on me for 2 years, but I am looking for ways faster. Operation in a private clinic costs more than $ 1000, it is expensive for me.
Computed tomography of the nose (picture):
Throat.
The tonsils are enlarged, long -term treatment is required so far.
At the base of the throat, a significant size of the snot or discharge from the nose that interferes with breathing can accumulate (perhaps this is due to inflammation of the sinuses).
Pillow.
I have been sleeping for many years on folded towels together.
Such a pillow remains the most convenient for me. The use of classic, large feathers or cheap orthopedic pillows was not convenient for me. But I am in search of a more favorable position for the throat that will give the throat to be in open state.
This is how my dream looks in the Oscar:

This is what my sleep time looks like recently:

I hope that this topic will help someone in the future learn to sleep with CPUP, support a person in his not simple undertakings.
I read the forum and realized that many people novice CPUP therapy reveal problems related to sleeping in a mask under pressure. But thanks to the support of people from this forum, these difficulties on the way to high -quality sleep, well -being to clear creating during the day, overcame these difficulties. This inspires and gives hope for success in adaptation to CPUP as I gave me after reading the topics on the forum. Thank you!
