Anyone else experience increased exhaustion after using CPAP (approx 7+ hours a night with a pressure of 12-14)? I was more diligent about using my CPAP months ago and averaged daily useage 7 hours . I never noticed a difference and have required since 2 years ago the use of Adderall and now Provigil. This is to treat my excessive daytime sleepiness. Without using this medication I feel like I haven’t slept for days. Some nights that I don’t use my CPAP I actually wake up feeling more refreshed then after nights of 7+ CPAP useage. My sleep doctor is puzzled and I even had a sleep test for Narcolepsy but did not have it . I’m 33 and have had diagnosis of sleep apnea since 2014. I used to doze while driving to work in the morning which was the factor for initial sleep test. Anyone with any similarity ??
