Deciphering CPAP results for myself

Post by mymom » Thu Sep 22, 2016 11:10 am

Can anyone help me interpret some CPAP results? All the CPAP people will tell me is that we need to go back to a doctor

You need to download (free) Sleepyhead software, post the reports to Imgur.com and leave a link to them in this thread.

OR, do you have something you can just post here now (no graphics tho')?

It will be helpful if you register for this forum so that your equipment can be listed. That will guide the answers to something that is helpful to you. For example, if you machine does not collect full (or even partial) data but just records hours of use, the usual solutions for generating your own reports won't work. Without the machine make and model, we can't provide better guidance.
