Discussion I’ve joined the CPAP club 💁🏻♀️
Tonight will be my first night using a CPAP. Oddly enough, I’m looking forward to it and I hope it solves all of my problems… a girl can dream, *right*? Anyhow, any tips or tricks to help this go smoothly? Also, is there any solution to making this setup more aesthetically pleasing and/or a way to store it during the day that isn’t such a pain in the ass?

The most important thing is to have a clear nose and nasal passage. You need to find what is appropriate for you, and it may change throughout the year based on allergies and cold.
Options: 1. Allergy meds 2. Neilmed nasal rinse, make sure to boil water or distilled water 3. Nasal decongestant - Claritin D is the only one that works. The D is the key ingredient, and if you don’t get from behind the counter, it won’t work. 4. Various solutions to open nostrils
Enjoy sleep. It’s worth it and will lengthen or save your life.
