Hi all.. I just recently started with a CPAP also.. my 02 levels are dropping to 52% during the night and close to 200 apnea events etc... They say is it anatomy with me... The first night went ok - I got one with the nasal pillows and feel like Darth Vader suiting up to go to sleep.. The next day I had one of the best days I had experienced in a LONG time... then the next day was s***...and so have been the next 3 days.... Which is what led me to pop on here an cee if anyone has experienced this...

I am wondering if the extra oxygenation is killing off a lot of my viral and bacterial pathogens. After all they HATE OXYGEN right? Could this be why many of us feel WORSE???? I am gonna stick with it for a month and see what happens and I will report back... It only stands to reason that it can and probably DOES cause HERX!

I will check back in in a month.. I want to feel like I did the first day... every day....

But at almost 55 ... I don't get my hopes up for anything anymore after battling the beast for nearly 40 of those long hard years....

Fight on!!! And PS I too would horrify you if I told you what I have spent FIGHTING for 40 years!! it is in the hundreds of thousands...I assure you... GRRRRR

Bipap and oxygen stopped my constant infections. I have complex apnea as well. My body is fucked multi system fails.
