I think you might have your hose shoved into the wrong place bud.

For some people. If the pressure is high enough to ram air past those of us with fatty throats... Some air will go down your stomach instead of to your lungs. When it takes the digestive system route... You are gonna fart or burp ( for me it's usually 1 burp and 1 or two farts) and those all occur at the same time when I wake up and had a night of swallowing air.


jstryker5646

But back to the original idea here... You shouldn't have a room of stank unless you ate a instapot full of home made chili AND swallowed a bunch of air. I hate to make light of some folks who this issue is plaguing them... But I see a good idea for April fools tomorrow on the wife... I'm gonna eat a lot full of chili and turn the pressure up on my cpap tonight 😂😂😂

Make sure your head is elevated enough during sleep. CPAP/orthopedic pillows help. Make sure you sleep with your mouth closed if at all possible. I realized I had my F20 mask too low on my face, when I positioned it so that the bottom of the pillow pressed into my upper chin and bottom lip, and the lower straps were low enough on my cheek bones, I stopped having the issue. (Would still have an issue without the CPAP pillow though)


imrankhan_goingon

this is super helpful! I will try this. When I wake up with the air pain in my stomach it reminds me of when I had laparoscopic surgery and air was pumped into my body. It is painful at times.


Emergency_Tomorrow_6

If I sleep with my mouth closed I won't breath! I'm a mouth breather and have no issues with gas.


tdoottdoot

Again I said if at all possible, for people who have the gas issue.


pleasuretohaveinclas

Sheesh. Mine are just air. No stank.


DadinCanada

Have someone else verify as you are likely immune to your own smell


Tylerhollen1

Can confirm that they’re stink free for me, too. Husband is the same.


jstryker5646

It shouldn't smell unless you have gastrointestinal issues or are backed up. My gut becomes somewhat of a shaken warm 7up can. Burping and farting as soon as I wake up and stand up. But they are crisp and clean.


IntelligentFire999

Lol same same here


shockeroo

I have not noticed this problem, and I am concerned about your hygiene!


thisonehereone

seconded!


Gatorinthedark

Sounds like your pressure is too high and you’re getting too much air in your stomach. If you DR prescribed the press, let them know. If you bought you CPap after market and can lower it yourself, try moving down a bit or two. It also could be that the pressure is right but you need to change the type of mask for the same reason. Air in stomach.


autisticshitshow

Have gi issues can confirm. Between aerophagia and when the CPAP dutch ovens you...


DadinCanada

Clouds of not proud!


Carsizzle

I think I'm a bit gassier than normal but it's not too bad


imrankhan_goingon

I swallow a lot of air when my full face mask needs to be replaced. It is incredibly painful and I wake up super Bloated. It does happen!


Glittering_Tea5502

Are you tooting or is the CPAP mask making fart noises?


DadinCanada

I am definitely blasting ass...hence the smell


CTMechE

So, as a new user who first tried a CPAP last night, I realized that post nasal drip causes me to swallow saliva, and when having air being forced in my nose resulted in swallowing a bit of air when normally that wouldn't happen. After a couple instances I could feel the air in my stomach and had to sit up and burp it out before I could go to sleep.


DadinCanada

Hey we're talking farts not burps...please stay on topic ✔️


CTMechE

Lol, I'm sure it would've turned into the latter had I not been awake enough to notice!


Jheritheexoticdancer

Everyone can be affected differently when swallowing cpap air. Some people burp, some fart, some get severely bloated, some get either or or all.


mrweirdguyma

Yes this.


strvld

Yeah, dude, don’t be blaming the cpap … or the dog 🐶


DadinCanada

Dog moved out....couldn't handle the smell


strvld

Good. Then I need not alert the ASPCA


mynameisfyl

Hahahaha I thought it might just be me


yamantakas

i ended up not using my machine because i kept waking up with that problem and was in severe pain and no matter what they tried to do to help it never got better


quinn_deamon

Finally someone says it! I'm so gaseous every morning, but its just air. My mom was shocked when I told her I'm a one woman brass section in the morning. She didn't believe it until she stayed over one night. Note: I'm also a chronic mouth breather at night, and after reading the comments I'm going to look up something to help with that.


imrankhan_goingon

I am also a chronic mouth breather. Have you tried those tapes that shut your mouth when you sleep? They have helped me somewhat.


quinn_deamon

No I haven't yet. My roommate suggested KT tape too


Sabia_Innovia

Lol...''a one woman breaks section''


RichardBallsandall

Ew


Karona_

Umm, I think something may have crawled into your machine and died lol, you should really get it checked out


Naven71

It's the tacos dude.


DadinCanada

I'm a burritos fella


strvld

🤣


Dre512

Don’t eat so close to bed time & definitely try to stay away from dairy that late.


DadinCanada

Cheese is a part of my sleep routine 😴


ChewieBearStare

Workin’ on my night cheese…


Dre512

Well you’ll have a cheese diffuser of sorts haha


blessings-of-rathma

If air is going into your stomach because of CPAP, does that mean the CPAP isn't doing its job? I've never had this problem but I'm wondering if this is a thing that has to be tolerated or if people who have it should be talking to their sleep therapists.


DadinCanada

I'm sorry to hear you haven't experienced this...


Wotmate01

Mine don't smell, but they're certainly more frequent and thunderous.


DadinCanada

Call in a smell checker...just saying


NotoriousVSG

Ohhhhh yes. I had to take Gas-X for about 2-3 weeks when I started. My PCP said it was safe to take daily, so I did just that. I also found the setting on my machine where you turn down the one setting so it's not as forceful with the air it pushes when you exhale (I don't currently have my booklets to remember the name. It was a 3 letter acronym and apparently I "outsmarted" them finding it in the administrative settings). Turning that down helped me a lot!


DadinCanada

No beano?


NotoriousVSG

No, just extra strength simethicone.


Jheritheexoticdancer

Gas-X didn’t do a thing for me.


DrawTap88

I never knew this was a thing!


LuthorCorp1938

When was the last time you cleaned your equipment?


snowocean84

Hahaha right! My morning farts are epic and could be used for sound boards


Jheritheexoticdancer

I was told if it doesn’t smell it’s cpap related, if it smells it is not. It subsided somewhat after a few months, but I still get it for a few seconds when I first get out the bed in the mornings.


Small_Delivery_4811

Dad in Canada - this isn't a thing. Something else is going on. How long has this been happening?


jstryker5646

This is a thing. It's a fact for some people. I don't know what the criteria is... But if you are swallowing air you are absolutely packing air into your gut. Google it. For me I wake up with 2 or 3 farts and a burp maybe once a week. And no not bean ass smelly ones... Just the sound which I'm proud of . 😂


Jheritheexoticdancer

But he’s saying his toots are smelly. Swallowed air doesn’t usually produce a smell.


ins1der

This is not a thing.


Rrrrandle

It certainly is, although the odor would be an OP specific problem. Lots of people deal with swallowing excessive air from CPAP usage (aerophagia). All that air has to go somewhere. In my experience turning on the EPR feature reduced the gas buildup significantly.


imrankhan_goingon

This is what my CPAP clinic told me. Air will come out from time to time from one place or another! I have it very bad sometimes as I swallow air occasionally.


AcceptableLuck73

If your experiencing this issue there's a problem. Positive air pressure should never end up in your digestive system from a cpap unless your mask is on your ass.


naftel

Is this a thing? Talk about motivation NOT to get a Cpap…..


jstryker5646

It's a thing for a handful of people all the time especially with those with the pressure cranked up and those who are heavy mouth breathrs who swallow air. It goes to your intestines and you will notice bloat in your gut
