Re: Need Advice - Exhausted Again

One way to try to adapt to your new bilevel machine is to use it outside your bedroom during the day or evening while you watch TV, read, or use your devices. Maybe you could give that a try? Also, could you remind me of the make and model of this new machine that you're trying to get used to? And ...

Re: Need Advice - Exhausted Again

Thanks for clarifying the timeline, Sean. So the sleep study came after you were on the Subutex. Did it show a lot of centrals? I think the answer is no, but I want to be sure. Does the sleep doctor know you're being treated with Subutex? Have you talked with the doctor who prescribed Subutex about...

Re: Need Advice - Exhausted Again

There's a piece of the timeline I don't understand, and it might be important. What order did these things happen in: * Your sleep test * Your use of opiod drugs * Your treatment with Subutex. Which was first, which second, and which third? Use first of opiates after major surgery for pain and bega...

Re: Need Advice - Exhausted Again

still using the Escape. Downloaded the software recommended and it is showing the SD card didn't write any info. Old machine and not properly setup maybe? I The Escape doesn't record any data beyond hours of use. Nothing for the software to see that would offer any details. Has nothing to do with t...

Re: Need Advice - Exhausted Again

Hi all. I have been using my CPAP consistently for about 7 years now and have become dependent on it to where I cannot even fall asleep without it. As far as I know, living human beings are dependent of breathing. They can't live without it. Long story short, has anyone [...] not been able to sleep...

Re: Worsening fatigue need advice

What would you guys recommend? Right now, go to the sleep reports on your machine's display and tell us what your AHI and leak level were for the last 30 days. My ResMed Escape doesn't seem to have written any data on the SD Card nor does it show me any AHI info when going into the physician settin...

Hi all. I have been using my CPAP consistently for about 7 years now and have become dependent on it to where I cannot even fall asleep without it. I am now starting to wake up every 3-4 hours like clockwork and needing to wait about 30 minutes before going back to sleep. I am guessing this is due t...

Worsening fatigue need advice

I’ve been having issues sleeping without my Cpap and been told I have central sleep apnea but it was only discovered after using my cpap machine, so I feel it’s central’s induced by the machine. I cannot tolerate a central treatment machine and cannot sleep without my Cpap even if I wanted to. Issue...

Re: Esophagus Stomach Pain?

Resmed most common one That's not a good answer. What model machine do you have now, and what did you have before? I also have central sleep apnea What exactly is your diagnosis? If you truly have complex apnea (obstructive and central), ResMed's "most common" machine may not be suitable. REsMED IP...

You have the capability to turn the humidity down if it's too warm. What machine do you have? What machine did you have prevuously? Resmed most common one. I know I can adjust it but it doesn't seem to warm unless its on full setting. I have a newer machine like I said, but I cant seem to fall asle...

Esophagus Stomach Pain?
