Pain control, leaks and sleep apnea

My pressure is 17, I am concerned that such a high pressure could cause a intestional leak by inflating my intestines. I have read about this occuring to someone. Although my pulmonary doctor says it cant happen and my doctors staff said not to worry about it, they have never seen it occur. Well naturally I dont want to be their first! Plus I am worried that pain control with sleep apnea will not be enough. Hopefully some of you can reassure me.
