Re: New Software iPhone, Web, and Backup

You all are right that interfacing wirelessly with cpap is one of the tricky parts, especially across multiple manufacturers who are not trying to help make it happen. What I've been experimenting with is replacing the SD card with a new SD card that has WiFi built in. These WiFi cards are usually m...

Re: New Software iPhone, Web, and Backup

Wow, another great idea sister - I have special needs in my family but didn't think of this. This would be the first "real time" application of cpap data I've heard of outside of a sleep study. FM YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But please make it so you could set the alerts to automatically alarm/alert a smart p...

Re: New Software iPhone, Web, and Backup

What your saying makes sense - It would probably be more useful as an "on demand" feature rather that something automatically sent every so often. Thanks for the feedback Zen! FM Seems like a very useful app. I like all the options but would prefer easily to send my Doc my reports at my discretion, ...

Re: OK to switch to different mask type at same setting?

Wow Pugsy you know a lot about this - do you work in the cpap business? Thanks for the help, FM Just wanted to claim my last post as guest, I didn't realize I wasn't logged in. Hi BlackSpinner, I noticed this setting but never changed mine to match. Any idea what this setting actually does?, Hello a...

Re: New Software iPhone, Web, and Backup

Thanks Nate and Julie, very helpful feedback. With access for friends/family, I was thinking about being to help older or disabled relatives like my mom. But maybe that's an edge case that wouldn't benefit most people. I agree with Nate - I honestly don't think most doctors will even look at the res...

Re: Weight loss to reduce apnea

"Starvation mode" by itself does not cause plateuas and does not prevent you from losing any further weight. It may reduce the rate at which you're losing weight, but it can't stop it. You say you have stopped losing weight completely, so there's something else going on here. You're already a rock s...

Re: Help For Sleeping on my Face

Just updated my profile, this happened with the aloha mask. That's a bit unsettling about the CO2. Maybe I need to add some sort of pressure sensor that makes an obnoxious noise when I roll on it. What's a little more sleep lost? I've realized that not only am I a side sleeper, sometimes I'll wake u...

Re: OT: Addressing the Wicked Problem of Obesity

Thank you for asking Roster. I'm in the process of sorting everything out and I agree mind/body health problem all interact together. I just think that particular term is not productive. It doesn't allow thin people to relate to us easily, and it doesn't always allow overweight people to realize the...

Re: OT: Addressing the Wicked Problem of Obesity

I think we should use more specifics instead of the term "emotional eating". For example my emotion is fear. I am insecure and easily stressed about certain things and the fear is so unpleasant that I feel like I have to self medicate by overeating, which helps to calm me down a little in the near t...

Re: BEWARE from BUYING at CPAP.COM

I've done both, returned new and used without a problem. When I first got setup the guy even came to the house and let me switch masks until it was acceptable. Don't know how unusual that is. Also I had insurance then, and now im on my own so no more house calls I think. Try returning a mask to your...

Really man? Yes, you were insulted. Does that blind you from seeing how you insulted people also and made false accusations that everyone was a shill?

Re: can't raise pressure due to dizziness ?

Man I know what you mean, but Dori's theory sounds Interesting. Maybe let yourself recover first, and also wait for a night when you can rest a lot the next day. If you decide to risk suffering in the name of science please let us know your result. Are you using any exhalation relief (EPR)? Perhaps ...
