Frequently Asked Questions about CPAP Care, Treatment and Supplies

Why do I wake up feeling bloated with air in my stomach?

Bloating is a sign that you are swallowing CPAP air into your stomach. Try sleeping as flat as possible, without a pillow if necessary, or in a more elevated position. Whichever one is most unlike your current sleeping position. If that does not resolve the issue, contact your sleep physician for further assistance.
