Mari,
Thank you so much for all the information. when i saw the sleep specialist last, which was like 2 weeks ago, i went in because i was still not sleeping, I told her I didn't feel like I was getting enough air. She told me to keep using the machine, which I did until I had like a flashback, but nothing like that had happened to me before. I was putting the mask on and felt as if someone was putting their hand over my mouth and keeping me from being able to get enough air so it's been 4 days since I used it till last night.

So epsom salt will help with swelling? Does it tell you how to use it and stuff, I have heard of it and I know my mom has used it a lot but don't remember what for. I will get some if I go out today or if my dad goes to the dollar store see if he can pick me up some cause i can hardly fit into shoes anymore and my socks are really tight.

Anyways, she said to come back in 6 weeks and if still feel the same she can adjust the air. It's only at a 8 right now, but she said she can make it go up. I have pushed all the buttons and turned the dials and stuff, and the card that is in their is going to show that I haven't used it enough for my insuarnace to cover it anyways, so I may be just giving it back. Beecause of my insuarance it has to be used at least 4 hours a night for 4 straigtht weeks. I did 2 1/2 straight weeks but that was short lived. Probably the doc can talk to my insurance or something, we'll see I guess.

Thanks again for the information, I was actually just going to look up some of that stuff and you beat me to it.

Talk to you soon,
Jen
