I do not. I have a BiPAP and am doing very well on it. It does not cause flatulence. When I started several years ago, it was on a CPAP which caused Aerophagia. The doctor (remotely) adjusted the settings and Aerophagia went away. Still, CPAP was not the best solution for me and I was upgraded to a BiPAP.

Have you reported flatulence to the sleep medicine doctor who manages your sleep apnea and prescribed your BiPAP machine?
