I am still experiencing this issue. It did go away with a new mask but it seems to be back and worse than ever. I have asked both my provider and the sleep clinic about this and they both say it can't be from sucking in air. I am taking the memory chip from the machine into my provider tomorrow to have it read and they can tell me if there has been air leaks. if so, this could be part of my problem. If not, I guess I need to see my doctor cause it is worse now than ever and so uncomfortable. Even exercising is difficult as I always feel like things are gonna come back up due to the pressure in my gut. I did try taking some zantac last night for acid reflux and indigestion but it didn't really work. I eat a lot of tums and rolaids but they don't really work either. I will try gas x next but I think a visit to my family doc is probably in order.
I have had a CPAP machine for about 4 months now. I am in the process of trying a new mask since in the last month or so I have been waking up feeling really gassy and sometime bloated and even nauseous. Does anyone else experience this? Is the pressure too high? Is it animproper fitting mask? Any one know or have suggestions?
