Stress
Does stress play a part in raising ahi's. Things not to happy at home at the moment and I am totally stressed out. I'm sure things will work out. 35 years married on 1/1/2012, too long to throw it all away.

Sorry to read this Carolyn. However, I would say that it's more likely the apnoeas causing the stress than the other way around. You've also had a lot of stress lately in getting to grips with your CPAP/BiPAP and in fact your diagnosis of sleep apnoea. Hope as your treatment improves, so will you stress levels, and consequently have a knock-on effect in all the other areas of your life. Good Luck!

My first question is why is condensation forming? I very occasionally get some condensation, may be once a month, but I can quickly run a finger around the inside of the mask, and wipe it away. I use a nasal mask, with the humidifier…"
