Just looking for some advice
I was just diagnosed with sleep apnea. My AHI is 57. My doctor said my pressure needs to be at 18. I got my machine and I really struggle with it. When I did my sleep study, they gave me an F20 mask, which I didn’t like so when I went and got my machine, they gave me the F30i. I like the fact that it doesn’t cover the bridge of my nose but I really have a hard time sleeping with it. I can get a good deal sitting up but as soon as I put my head on the pillow combined with the high pressure, it like lifts up. I also sleep on my side and that seems to push up on the mask and break the seal also. Now I know you have to find the correct combination and that takes some trial and error but these masks are not cheap and my insurance company only replaces them once a year.
If it’s going to make me feel better, I want it to work. I want to find the right combination of things so I can just sleep at night. But it’s constantly waking me up and I struggle to even get the 4 hrs with it.
