Re: After your initial diagnosis did you get to meet w/a Dr.?
I never saw a sleep doctor the first time round. I went to a sleep clinic, had a split night sleep study where I slept about 3 hours solid during the second phase with a mask. Was told where to get the machine (apria at the time) but I had read up before that visit so I had a good idea of what the m...

Re: Exhale causes machine to Hum and vibrate
Check the seals on your tank. This can also effect output.michaelanthonyp wrote:My machine has loads of other problems with output, but after a while it did the same thing. When I first got it, it was *silent*. After a while, weeks or month or so, it started making a moaning sound when I exhale. )

Re: Need response--my doctor won't help

I think he may have prescribed auto because my OSA was so severe; he said that auto technology is the best at eliminating events, and he felt I needed the bes...

Re: health issues using auto cpap
Not sure what the point of letting the tank dry out everyday is. I just top off every night and wash it occasionally. It is distilled water. Resmed cpaps continued to run when you turn then off for a period of time to cool off and dry the hose. Can't see what cpap model you have using this app but a...
