Hello everyone, i reading this forum one time. First of all I'm sorry if my english isnt very good. Im from south-east europe and not use english every day.
I was diagnosed sleep apnea before 30 days, with AHI about 60 per hours and 25-30 sec by apnea. Doctor is say that is hard apnea and recomended treatment with CPAP device. Now I have a device, Weinmann somnobalance e, doctor and some other users is say that is the best device and im very satisfied with him and hes very quiet.
I feel better with device, have more energy, im not sleepy more, less nervous, etc. quality of life is really better.
I have one problem my pounds not go down im gained 1-2 kilograms in 15 days.

Yes you might put on a little weight at the start, however you should start to feel a bit better as time goes on.
You should have more energy, so get out and walk, the faster the better (if you can), swimming is also good.
Keep off the drink and eat less even though you might have more of an appetite.
Slimming World is very good if you have one near you, you can eat some things till you are full to bursting.
Other foods you need to avoid, but if you feel hungry on their diet there is something wrong with what you are doing.

Good luck with your new treatment.

Thx for advice. I have a question. Is smart use cpap device when is storm outside and thundering? Im never have problems with other device when is storm but still...

I have not been hit in 22years, however, if I am woken by a lightning storm I am to interested in watching it to worry about it hitting me when using the machine.
I am usually at the window looking out However, when the storm moves away a bit I do wonder what would happen if it did hit power lines close by.
You are not connected directly with something that conducts electricity, however, the machine is to close for comfort if it did hit. To put in into perspective, you are in more danger using a phone.
Lightning appears to seek out telephone wires, even when they are under ground. I have know of loads of telephone sockets to be blown off the wall, but no power sockets.
Still, when the storm is close I don't use the machine, lightning is never in the same place for to long.
It is a magical thing to watch anyway, so now you have an excuse to watch it

Hehe yes, the best is not use device when is storm or maybe buy battery for him and use when is storm.

You could buy a battery, but is it worth it for a couple of hours?
Unless you are in an area prone to all night storms, however, if you have a spare battery it might be worth keeping it charged.
