Sooo tired
#1
Sooo tired
I've been reading, and apparently this is normal when just starting out on a CPAP.. as I'm only a week in. 
I'd get there being an adjustment period because one sleep is interrupted trying to get used to mask. Hose. Whatever.  

I don't have that issue. No issues with head gear.  Getting 6hr of sleep a nite. No mask leak and AHI under 2 (sleep study was 7)

Obviously going to stick it out, just wonder if anyone can make sense of the cause of being tired. Almost feel worse. Lol 

Thanks!

RE: Sooo tired
Being one week in is a bit early to expect dramatic results. I'd suggest you look at the adequacy of 6-hours of sleep. Most of us require more to feel rested, and you are still in a recovery process. Try to find the time to extend sleep another hour or two.

RE: Sooo tired
Lol
So I just looked and last nite with the simplus max (one I was titrated on)
My AHI is 0.4 yet today was the most tired I've been. Granted I might be stressing about something else and that is draining me
Edit. Just looked. Only got 4.3hr sleep.... I'm going on a limb here and say that's the issue. Smile

RE: Sooo tired
Hang in there AHI is not the only thing. I have nights where mine is higher and I feel well rested and nights where it is lower and feel like I slept like crap. Sounds like you're doing OK for just starting out.

RE: Sooo tired
4.3 hours of sleep would leave me whacked the next day!  Go get some real sleep!  You can party when you're dead.  er, no, that is not it...
