Guest guest Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 I was just diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and have my clinical appointment for the CPAP fitting and training. Anything I should know about before-hand? C_53_IPF_5/09Washington-the-Evergreen-state Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 C Blue Gel.....Blue Gel.....Blue Gel Now its not the same with everyone but I know so many people who love the blue gel masks which come in multiple sizes. Yet, many times they aren't offered and harder plastic ones are. Mask fit and comfort is very important so make them try as many as you want. When was fitted the guy had 14 different masks available. Yet, I've seen others only offer 2 or 3. Now, on top of sleep apnea hopefully they looked at your oxygen levels. If they are low you're likely to need oxygen coming into and through the CPAP machine. Sleep Apnea and low saturation are two very different issues although many do have both. > > I was just diagnosed with Sleep Apnea and have my clinical appointment for the CPAP fitting and training.
