Re: How difficult to adapt to asv

SeekSleep, your last post had me laughing and doing the happy dance with you! Congratulations on your new machine and quick adaptation. You might want to try a white noise machine, ( I use one from RadioShack) from the days of night work. It makes all the difference in the world. I love it that you ...

Re: How difficult to adapt to asv

Hi SeekSleep: I've only been on my ASV since 6/21, but have found that it is wonderful. My machine is a Resmed ASV, and it is fully data capable, completely auto adjusts to every breath and drops the pressure on exhale. I haven't hooked up the humidifier and climate line tube yet, but it also adapts...

Re: a little nervous - venting

Tuzacat, I understand the stress of using a new med. I too am allergic to many drugs, and it causes me some concerns, especially if I need to take the med at night. But here are a few of the things I use for sinus problems/infections. The Vicks Co. Sells a vaporizer that is for nasal use. It just fi...

Re: I CRIED WITH JOY WHEN MY SLEEP SPECIALIST SAID I HAVE SLEEP

Congrats, I know how you feel. I too cried the first morning that I awoke without a migraine or a two hour fog! My bet is that you will take to the mask and machine like a duck to water. My sleep tech told me that those of us with severe OSA are the most compliant, the relief for us is so dramatic t...

Newbie with first of many questions!

Hi, I just received my own machine yesterday! My question, all testing had been done with standard tubing, new machine uses SLIMLINE, could this change pressures or anything else? Thanks in advance for the expert help? Zen
