hiccups - gingigingi13 - 06-15-2014
I finally had a wonderful full night's sleep...and then last night while on cpap, I got the hiccups! I took off my mask and within 5 minutes, the hiccups were gone. This happened twice. Any thoughts?

But other than that I haven't heard this to be a big problem before. So maybe it's just a passing fancy.

A change to a nasal pillow did the trick. I was "swallowing too much air". Last nght I slept 8 full hours!

After I was on the machine for a couple months my blood pressure started coming down on it's own. Not a lot, but some.
The knee thing? Well, that's probably your old football injury, so not much help there. It'll keep you out of the draft though.........

What do you mean RG. We all sleep in a draft!
