What Causes Dizziness And Weakness After Using VPAP Machine?
I had clots in my lungs about 5 months ago and am taking Xarelto (blood thinner) I am just stating to use a VPAP machine (Resmed ASV) to sleep at night. They also recommended oxygen bleed into the system at the 4 liters setting. I am experiencing dizziness during the day, along with weakness, tired, and some confusion. At first I think the oxygen is causing this, but it may also be something with the blood thiner. Should I contact my thrombosis doctor or should I contact my sleep doctor?
