CPAP - okay, I was wrong
Feb. 15th, 2022 11:20 pmSo, I have used my CPAP every night since 03 November 2021.
I recently had a heart ultrasound, and the pressure in the right thingy of my heart is substantially improved.
I don't know the units, but the normal range is 20 to 30, and my last measure was 83, and now it is 56. So, more improvement is needed, but this is a big step in the right direction.
The nose mask is still silly but okay, and I can sleep with it fine.
The new problem is that my Suzi feels that it is meant to be a platform for her to parade on with her pointy toes, which leave holes in the hose (thank you so much), so I have had to get a basket arrangement to cover it. I found the perfect thing: it is a rectangular basket, with a wicker edge and bottom, held apart by an arrangement of wires like a jail. I use it upside down, so the cat can park on top of it, but the electrical cord and the hose can fit through the bars. Also, the machine still has ventilation so it doesn't overheat. I did have to discourage her from reaching through the bars for the hose. What a clever girl.
Yay CPAP. Sis Boom Bah. Chachacha.
