Trying a CPAP for My Severe Sleep Apnea
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.Год назад
In this vlog I discuss my severe sleep apnea and how trying a CPAP for the first few nights affected me. My doctors think my sleep apnea could be making my depression resistant to treatments, as my brain isn't getting the oxygen it needs at night. They also think it is contributing to my weight gain (which contributes to the sleep apnea in a vicious cycle - though not everyone's apnea is affect...

    I am lying in bed right now. I am having the worst week, thus far, of my life, living with Fibro. I am now 60 yrs.old. The onset and diagnosis of it was when i was 27 yrs.old. I am so phucking tired of this sh!t! I feel so bad that i can not understand how having this extreme amount of pain and suffering hasn't caused my body to just give up. My skin is so sensitive to heat and cold, fabrics, and touch. I feel like i have a fever. All of my joints and muscles hurt. I have so many places on my body that are so TENDER. My neck and upper back are on fire. Last week i went to the chiropractor to get an adjustment. Bad decision!! It hurt me so much. I had made an appt.with a massage therapist. I had to cancel it. It would have been excruciating for anyone to touch my muscles. My shoulders, my back, my hips, my outer knees and my feet. I like to be in the dark when i don't feel well. I have had to disappoint my family so much because of this damn condition. When i am having " CRAZY " pain, all i can do it try to make myself as comfortable as possible and try to sleep and rest til i can have the strength to do the basics. The pain can make me feel nauseous. I could power - through in my 30s because i had 3 daughters to raise. I used to enjoy working in the yard. Now i will have to have bed rest for a week following any normal activity that people do. My husband passed away three yrs ago. Now i am a widow who lives alone. I have no help. I will continue taking care of myself like i have always done, until i give out. I also have stage 4 kidney disease. I am a Christian. I just call out to the Lord, just to please help me. If i couldn't be able to do that, i would have no hope. Having a flare up is like putting your life on hold until it subsides. They ( the medical doctors )for the majority, have no clue about what can really help. I have done it ALL! THEY say its not progressive as you age. I disagree 100 percent. I would not ever wish this condition on my very worst enemy, if i had one. I think that mental trauma has a direct effect on the body. Its like trauma is stored up in my body. I see a great therapist so she helps with those things but i think that ptsd is brutal to the body and has some long lasting effects. I have had some trauma that i just tried to move on from. Out of sight, out of mind... Whatever it may be. That never works, unfortunately. All i can say is just do the best you can. If others don't like it or think its not enough, let it be. If they had to spend one hour in your shoes they would be begging you to give them their shoes back, guaranteed. Nobody knows what it is like to have Fibro, if they have never had it. That also includes medical doctors.

    Just want to clarify, I incorrectly said I was on painkillers, but what I meant was my fibromyalgia med that killed the pain: Lyrica. I was on Lyrica at the time I filmed this video, and eventually stopped because of side effects such as weight gain. I am now taking Nortryptaline and my fibro is under control. I am aware that painkillers don’t do much for fibromyalgia and I’m sorry I didn’t catch that mistake in editing. ❤

  • @AshleySpeaks4U
    @AshleySpeaks4U 2 месяца назад

    I take Lyrica or Pregabalin. Only thing that kills the pain. I don't know why you are taking pain-killers because FMS is not affected by opioids/traditional pain killers. They don't work, but Lyrica does, and not the same side effects. If you have not tried it, it's worth it-just in case it works for you.

    • @Angeegabs
      @Angeegabs 2 месяца назад

      @@AshleySpeaks4U I accidentally said painkillers but what I meant was my med that kills the fibro pain - Lyrica. I was on it at the time the video was filmed and it did help somewhat, but I gained a ton of weight on it. I’m now on Nortryptaline and it’s working great! I’m glad you found something that works for you.

    You made me feel better because I struggle to do small things and before I got chronic back pain I was on the go all the time. Now if I get up and take my medication and wash that is a triumph. It is hard to explain to others who are not in chronic pain. I mean where do you start. I feel like an apology before most people coz I can't do the things they do and I did and amongst all that I have to try to find my own way. Got seriously depressed last year after having to put my cat down from cancer aged 14 years and then in 2022 being hospitalised because of a pulmonary embolism and I was in end stage heart failure at the time. Such an almighty shock. My heart failure is much better with medication and under cardiologist care. I am so grateful for that and I am just getting out of the cycle of severe depression which was rooted in all the things I can't do and the financial stress of being chronically ill. I am just coming out of that now and I have to learn my life is completely different now and learn to adapt. Thank you. I am glad I found your channel . Keep going ❤️

    Niacin flush is worth the researching. It doesn’t resolve all my fibroid symptoms but it sure helped out a lot. To do this correctly I match same amount of niacin to glycine so 300 mg of each taken at the same time 3 times per day with fatty food. However I take the last dose before 7pm so that it doesn’t interfere with my bedtime routine.

    Hi , new sub. I found you on insta, and wasn’t sure what was wrong, but felt like I could relate somehow. I have a screwed up back and have had neck surgery, rotator cuff surgery, and two (R) hip replacements that have dislocated 3 times! I get it! Pain is so difficult, to never have a break!! It dulls but NEVER goes away! I love the idea of the aqua therapy, I’m just worried about getting in a pool, and not having the strength to get back out, due to no strength in my back and legs. I have Neuropathy in my (R) leg. You have given me the idea to try. I just don’t want to fall or be embarrassed, that I can’t get back out, but I know it would help with the terrible muscle spasms that never stop. Thank you, for your encouragement, even though you don’t know me. I understand you so much, when you said you like to go to bed I was so surprised. That’s a true blessing. Bedtime is the worst time of day, for me!Most nights I get maybe 1-2 broken hours to sleep and I am awake again due to pain. The pain med makes me wide awake, but if I don’t take it I will never fall asleep either. It’s a double edge sword. I would love to be encouragement to you somehow! Sometimes, just having a listening ear from someone that doesn’t know you personally helps a lot, but I mainly keep to myself. It really designated with me when you were talking about cooking or standing to complete it! My life savers are my instapot and the air fryer. Because I don’t have to stand and wait or babysit most of the time! I hope you have a good weekend and look forward to help encouraging you in the future! Thanks 🙏 for bringing the water exercises up, you didn’t know it but it was very helpful to me. I’m going to try, if you can at least I can give it a shot! You never know where good things will come from! Wishing you all the best and know there is always something bright about everyday, even sometimes we can’t see it or feel it! Hope to talk to you soon and watch some of your other videos. God bless you❤️
