#cpap mask

[prettytubedandwired]

hello beatifull kinky people. this is based on a scenario i made for the lovely @ecgguy a bit ago, but more people deserve to enjoy it😁⭐️

have fun!

(tw!! medical fetish)

going back to the doctors after years of misdiagnosis. struggle to breathe, swollen stomach, sore nipples, intense feeling of arousal…

they take you to intensive care. they put you on oxygen, a cpap for now, the pillow rests under your nose and the fabric string feels tight, forcing you to inhale as the machine pushes the air in for you.

then the ecg and electrogastrogram, to wire up and monitor your swollen belly. 12 leads across your chest. une under your navel, three on top, four on the sides, two on your pelvis.

they say they need a closer look inside the stomach. a small incision and two wires are pushed through your navel. then taped to your belly and around, secure and painless.

the team decides to put you on an eeg, to observe the arousal, suspecting it might be neurological. several pairs of gloved hands work on you as the electrodes are sticked to your scalp. you wonder how you look.

your nipples ache less when in tension, so a pair of milkers is added, tugging and sucking on them rythmically.

naked, you feel so exposed. the blanket only covers up to your groin, and nurses, doctors and other patients pass by and look quickly into the room, to see you so exposed, head, chest and stomach all wired up, breathing with a tube, your nipples being sucked. they see you and every machine that you need to be plugged to, they see the screens and how sick you are, and how turned on you are by all this.

reminder to put filters on the inspiratory limb of your ventilators or CPAP devices. I had one on my lowenstein Luisa just because I thought it looked good especially with a dual limb setup and not even a week later this is what it looked like. you can clearly see the difference between the old one and the one on the left which is brand new. despite having a particle filter on the turbine intake of the ventilator you should also place one on the inspiratory limb of the ventilator circuit because that turbine will pick up any dust from the air and will deliver it through your mask and into your lungs and can cause illness. It’s probably why I got a minor cold on Christmas Day.

Okay! New day new CPAP update. There should be one or two more coming up soon with some changes to our routine with it, but honestly there shouldn't be too many more after that.

The big TL:DR is that it works pretty well, but not perfect, and we have a few issues.

Namely, we have this kind of rash on our face from the silicone mask with little wounds on our nose and acne-like spots around it. It's putting holes in our face because we have it too tight. The only issue is, the mask they sent us initially was too big so we had to tighten it too much to keep it from leaking. (It won't work as well if it leaks) And it still kinda leaks if we move around too much in our sleep. Last night we woke up several times in the night to stop it leaking and go back to sleep. I've been exhausted today because it just didn't work out as well as I needed it too.

But when it works well, it works really well. We're consistently waking up before 1:45pm and we're consistently going to bed before 1am because we get more out of our days and don't revenge bedtime as much. We can take naps during the day that actually help us rest and come back from those naps with energy.

I could really use a nap right now, but every week we have to wash every part of it so it's drying off in the bathroom and I can't use it yet. We've just received some mask liners in the mail that should keep the silicone off our skin, so that'll hopefully help with the pain. And the sleep clinic is sending us a new, smaller, memory foam mask which will hopefully seal better under less pressure. When we started using the machine, we'd yawn a lot. When we went to our appointment they asked us if that was happening and they said that we weren't getting enough air and the solution was to turn up the starting pressure, just by one. They did that and now we're breathing a lot better with the machine.

I'm not fully sure about it, but I really like defining myself in robotic terms. I like thinking of the mechanics of our brain in mechanical metaphors like it's a computer. I wouldn't always describe myself as an operating system or something like that, but I kinda enjoy it. Sometimes I think of myself as a robot with a meaty shell. And it's kinda affirming to be surrounded by wires and tubes at night. To have to strap into a machine that charges my batteries with necessary life energy. I think about the air going through the tube and even though it isn't exactly applicable, my brain screams "pneumatics". It's really affirming to have that collection of things making me feel a little bit like a robot. Or maybe a cyborg.

I started painting as it gave me something to do while on oxygen due to untreated sleep apnea. I stopped breathing 50x an hour resulting in low O2 levels. The CPAP Machine saved my life. 2yrs later and my Oxygen levels are almost normal. Thank you, more please! A self-portrait of survival

I use a cpap and I have no idea how I ever slept without it anymore. People just be sleeping normally while they sleep? Wild. Sounds like propaganda

Morning shed but it’s just me fighting my way free of my cpap - is this anything?
