Stumbled across your vid in a cpap search. I've had mine a month now (they set it to 12), and I wish I could say it's made a positive difference, but just the opposite seems true. I don't think I've slept less in my life, hahaha. But I applaud you in all you're doing. I and everyone, could learn a lot from your attitude about facing facts and then DOing something about it! Best wishes for continued success!

Aw.. that is so sweet! Sorry you are having trouble! I think it is time for mine to get turned down again...

Thanks for this particular video. I have experienced the same thing. My pressure is 17 in, and I have been burping incredibly long once I put my bi-pap machine on. I find that I wake up in the morning with so much gas...

I was wondering last week if the problem with gas is the bi-pap machine. I certainly do not think it is food.

You know, my specialist may be the one to talk to. I was thinking that I should have another study. I am 118 pounds down, and still a long way to go.

I am glad you saw this! I am gonna sleep with a borrowed machine that adjusts all night to figure out my new number. They don't want to do a full on sleep study till I get to goal. My new bipap number is so much better now and I sleep so well

I have a cpap set at 12 and feel I need to have it set lower. I have had sleep apnea all my life...not weight related, good times. I have noticed I take it off in the middle of the night in my sleep, too.

I'm calling my cpap tech next week to get this adjusted..I also moved to colorado springs with a much higher elevation then where I was and need it adjusted.

I have a Cpap machine too. It's set at 10. I love that I can sleep so much better, yet I'll be glad to lose enough weight to get rid of it for good!

congrats on your awesome results. I will not have gastric surgery, but i have been on my bi-pap machine for a little over 1.5 years now and have lost about 170 lbs. Its amazing how breathing properly at night can give ones cells a metabolism and your brain enough energy to plan meals properly.

I am having the farting/belching problem now too but hopefully the doctor can reset the pressure when i see her next time.

I LOVE MY BI-PAP
