Back/Chest pain, need advice - anthonyfg - 09-08-2023
I have had chest/back pain before in my upper back. The way I could describe it is that it hurts to cough and I can't cough with force and it also hurts to sneeze. I used to have much worse pain but I lowered pressure to 8.4 and the pain went away. It's now back, I'm not 100% sure its CPAP but my gut feeling before was that i was over working my lungs/chest or it was getting "over pressured" I don't wake up bloated or gassy ever.
I don't know how to read graphs, could anyone help me understand if there is any glaring issues?

Just out of curiosity, did you have a severe case of COVID at some point?
This sounds eerily similar to the back/upper chest pain that I occasionally get, that started shortly after a severe case of COVID. Coughing and sneezing sent pain shooting into my back and/or upper chest.

No, I had a light case of covid, but I think the first time I had this problem was pre-covid.
