Black definitely is better in my opinion, although some people may like the pink. The S9 for Her was a terrible metallic pink. The Airsense 10 for Her is a light gray with dark gray flower accents. I was the first person at my DME to get the "for her" 10 and the therapist that set me up had to walk...

Awesome! I'll download Sleepyheads today! Can't believe how quick the open source community is!

Thank you! From what I've read, Sleepyhead doesn't work with the 10 yet, but Rescan does.

Thanks to the responses I got on my previous post here, and reading about everyone's positive experiences with cpap I have decided to take the plunge and try it. I purchased the Airsense 10 Autoset for Her based on recommendations here. Reading some of the DME horror stories here, I'd have to say I ...

Took home an S9 the day I got the sleep report and my ahi immediately dropped to <2.0. Used diligentl...

By sleep disturbances do you mean arousals? Although apnea can definitely cause them, beyond that, it can be tough to determine there cause. Some are normal for everyone, as is having some apnea events. This is what the DME rep called them when she was reading the report to me. You need to get info...

Thanks so much for all of the responses! I'll try and respond to everything. Sleep specialist? I'm seeing my pulmonologist who also does sleep medicine. The understanding is the last sleep study I had definitely was the best, the other two were worse. I think it is probably related to less REM sleep...

Hi Everyone! So glad to have found this group. I can tell just from the posts I've read already that this place is a wealth of information! A little background: Last year I was having a respiratory procedure done and while I was sedated, they noted that I had apnea episodes. I was suggested to go ge...
