hiccups
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?

Yep. Put the mask back on.

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.........
