Re: Heat symbol vs. Cool symbol on resmed AirSense10

Great idea!!! Yes, I had been through provider manual, without any reference found on heat/cool setting.

So I pulled the SD card. Made the changes, saved changes. Turned machine on without SD card inserted, and it automatically reverted to the warming icon.

Thanks for the idea!

Heat symbol vs. Cool symbol on resmed AirSense10

Seems to me that one was able to change these settings. During cooler winter climates, I enjoy the warm air. BUT with overnight temps predicted 70-80's, NO thank you! Warm air in my face, and I will rip off the mask, completely. Followed all directions to attempt to change and save changes from warm...

Re: Just plain. Frustration-ville!!!!

i am so new at this: hope this works. and it is what you need. surprised to find that I had zero leaks. But the Anew mask is aging, was strapped down so tightly, that it was leaving bruised nose cartilage behind. I switched back to the FFM by F&P Simplus. my reasoning now on my back post op, so migh...

Re: Mental Health Improve?

Yes, I will say that I had a positive mental adjust after starting treatment. Also, with better sleep, my body requirements for medications used to treat attention deficit disorder, dramatically changed. [ different type at a much lower dosage] So yes, I believe there is a positive good connection b...

Re: Just plain. Frustration-ville!!!!

Ok so NO, I don't know how to get SH graphs from there to here. My hubby did stuff at one point, but I tried today, and failed miserably. :? What I did do last night, went back to old mask. Checked it completely, affixed it to my face, very tightly. Left nice imprints. But I slept, on my back about ...

Just plain. Frustration-ville!!!!

Many changes over the past few days. Now it seems like nothing works. Can't get anything to fit without huge leaks. If I get it to work at all, then smiley face goes green for ten seconds, then without making any movement or changes, Preston, frowny face is red!. To boot, I am just one week out from...

( yeah, it has happened once before in recent memory) and negative dew point. This has been a frustrating time for me ...

Newbie...At last a good night?????

Started therapy 4Nov2017. I think that at long last I have had a good night of sleeping. Wasn't sleepy at 11 pm when I put the mask on and turned over and went to sleep. Over the past I had issued with the ramp suddenly blasting in my face, so it is set at 5 and last night not an issue. I happily di...

Re: What caused you to seek medical help,....

More than 3 years ago, I asked another physician if I had Sleep Apnea. Categorically said no. Fast forward and new group noted slightly high Red Blood count, not alarming, but off and odd. So Hematology started looking for potential cancer causing blood to make more RBC than normal. (Had just stoppe...
