It’s been awhile

​I have been consistent using my cpap bestie. Life before cpap bestie I’ll say BCP looking back was rough. How did I get through the day through life. More on that later. I have gone through this mouth tape and got a new one. My only complaint is like the last ten left a black sticky residue on my face not huge but I had to scrub hard to take off. I am trying new ones tomorrow.

12 days with my CPAP Bestie

Image
 I am starting this blog to track my journey with my CPAP Bestie in real time.  First night with her was on April 2, 2026. Last night till this morning OMG so many freaking air leaks.  I would wake up with gush of air on my face so loud.  Dry desert dry mouth, unclipping the sides of the face mask to drink some water that spilled, cause its dark. I'll post my screen shots. This is the second time there have been some air leaks and I dont know why. I woke up at 430 so I can finish up my charting from the patients I saw yesterday.  I feel good no fog having my two cups of coffee but just little irritated waking up three times due to the air leaks and adjusting my face mask while trying to get back to sleep. I also  needed to pee twice in the middle of the night. SO not a good time with my CPAP Bestie last night. Let see what my app says tomorrow.  April 13 due to dry mouth adjusted the temp but last night went back to automatic April 12 April 11 April 10...

Day 13

​📆 Day 13 💤 6 hours  ⚡️10 📝 last night I woke up like three to four times. Either from air gushing on my face forcefully or hearing an air leak. It’s very frustrating then I had to pee. I had a hard time waking up I did press snooze. My energy level was still at a 10. I did call the place I received my CPAP and the lady on the phone asked me to try to go down on the humidity cause my mouth was so dry again as well. I had to unclip my mask to sip some water. She made me an appointment on the 29th to try a different mask with a chin strap. I’m gonna order some mouth tape. I think maybe my mouth opens and the pressure changes. Also I change positions and it shift my mask. I mean when it’s good it’s good but the last three nights knowing that it can be good but having things like this happen it’s  frustrating. I hate that sad face and than 7.9 number. My AHI score was 53 with 229 events in four hours. Alright praying tonight is better.

 ​ 🗓️ Day 21 💤 6 hours 18 minutes ⚡️10 📉 Events 0.9 YAY! I am really going to start on getting seven hours of sleep consistently and then eight hours. I felt great today. I was looking at pictures of myself in February I look rough. I took my sixth shot of Zepbound last night. I finally hit my protein macros yesterday. I increased my Magnesium Glycinate to 360 mg last night was taking 240 mg. I'm happy about this. There are times where the mouth tape does make me feel claustrophobic and I try to keep my mental game right in the middle of the night when I wake up because of it. I feel good. Below are the wipes I bought and started using last night. When I put my mask on the nasal part did not smell right. So I let it air dry for a bit. I also do these blogs before bed so that gets into my sleep time. Need to do it first thing in the morning. Weight has dropped a bit. Its leg day today gonna increase the weight on the bulgarian lunges. Right now I'm at 30 pounds for two sets o...
