CPAP vs Bipap: What’s the Difference? - Sleep Apnea Therapies Explained

CPAP and BiPAP are two common treatments for sleep apnea. Both therapies involve pressurized air delivered into the breathing passages during sleep, but with one key difference: CPAP means the air is set to a fixed pressure level; BiPAP switches between different pressure levels during inhalation and exhalation.

They said I was difficult. I have BiPAP and it was 100% covered because I am in Canada and on Disability. But I am not having success so far. Sure I get better quality sleep but at shorter instances with the BiPAP than with nothing. I wake every hour and I got sores on my face, get leaks around my nose, and now have a very sore throat and my tonsils are inflamed. I am so exhausted and wondering if anything will work. I just got this machine less than a month ago and so many issues. Also I am told I might have chin drop so might have to also get some sort of neck brace for sleeping with the full face mask I use. I just want to sleep.
