What else can I do? - kentuckywildcats87 - 05-12-2023 Hey Folks Been on CPAP 1 year. I am still EXHAUSTED. I don't know what else I can be trying. Interesting notes: 1. I have deviated Septum 2. I have Sinusitis 3. I have hypertrophy of the nasal turbinates Here is my PSG Here was my MSLT Here is some sleep data: 1. https://sleephq.com/public/508efed4-c088-415a-ad66-0d68371abcad 2. https://sleephq.com/public/9c990bf0-0655-4515-9323-cae937d8c0d5 3. RE: What else can I do? - YipeekiOH - 05-12-2023 I have found that my diet was in part responsible for my exhaustion and made major dietary changes (whole food, plant-based diet). Problem solved. Although my apnea is mild, it was both CPAP and diet changes that made the difference. Hopefully others can help you tweak your settings to see if that will help. Best of luck!

Thank you for writing! I have to admit my diet is quite poor. It's been poor all my life so I justify by saying I would have felt bad earlier if it had something to do with my diet. But bodies change right. My wife has been insisting that this is probably a major cause. |
