Post Drainage issues 
Does anyone have a problem with mucus drainage??  I was just recentely diagnosed with OSA(spent 2 weeks in the hospital) and I seem to have quite a bit of drainage.  I've already had a chest xray and there is no infection(blood count is normal as well).  Did anybody else experience this problem in the beginning??  Thanks Smile

pao - are you using a heated humidifier?  If not, this may help with the drainage.

Also (heated humidifier is essential) have you tried sinus lavage?  Saline nasal spray (such as AYR)?
