I have no idea on what a BIPAP is. If it's the same as a CPAP, I can relate to it. I have had CH's for 24 years and have used a CPAP for the last 10. It made no differences to the CH's. They still come on the same schedule as they did before. If your husband has started getting headaches after starting the CPAP, I would look toward the straps and headgear to see if something is too tight. If I sleep in certain positions I cause excessive pressure in a very confined area, which causes pressure pain. Simply changing positions will help.
