G'day kaustin6, welcome to Apnea Board
I wouldn't normally expect a CPAP to cause neck or shoulder pain. It's conceivable that wearing the mask might cause you to sleep in an uncomfortable position which might put some strain on your neck or shoulder. As for the other questions. It's really hard to advise you without knowing the make & model of your machine or your settings. Please fill in your profile to help us help you.

Hi kaustin6, welcome to Apnea Board. I wouldn't expect the machine to forget it's settings from being without power for a year or three. It is common to feel uncomfortable if the Pressure or Start Pressure is too low, such as less than 6 or 8. What DeepBreathing wrote. Take care, --- Vaughn
