Hopefully, I get get some insight to help me.
I have been using a CPAP machine (Nasal) for little over 1 week. Over the past several days I have begun having severe backache when I wakep up after 5 or 6 hours on the CPAP machine and my sleep time is reducing as the backaches are coming sooner. I went to bed at 9:30PM, I woke up at 12:00AM and am still awake form the pain now. Saturday night/ Sunday morning I was able to lay down on my couch and sleep for a few minutes, than had to lay on the den floor for an hour or so as I was still tired.
I am a business traveler and this is my first night in a hotel after having been home for the holidays. I had hoped it was my bed and pillows, but since I am in a different bed. It has to be the way I am sleeping due to the machine and the way I have to lay due to the hose.
Does anyone have any idea or suggestions for reducing the backaches?
I do like the fact that the machine has helped me in not falling asleep in front of the computer while waiting for data to refresh. which I could do easily before the machine. It has given me more energy as I don't need an afternoon snooze like I did before.
Thanks
