Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
After one to three hours with my CPAP machine, my nasal passages swell shut and I can't breathe through my nose. This continues throughout the rest of the night, even after breaks of up to an hour. I had the surgery for nasal obstructions several years ago and a recent exam showed no problems. My CPAP pressure is 15; I had this problem with BiPap and went back to CPAP. My ENT recommend Nasocort or Flonase; after three months use, these have not resulted in any relief. I take generic Sudafed (prescription) and generic Claritin (OTC). Also on BP and Cholesterol medication.
