Re: Question regarding SD card usage for Airsense 11 Autoset
If I were to go to see my doctor after using the Airsense 11 device without an SD card, how would he have access to my sleep data? "Most" sleep doctors only look at compliance data. They don't have to time to look into the details. But you do using OSCAR or SleepHQ.com. SleepHQ is easier to use and...

Re: Question about sharing sleep data
I was wondering if people share their OSCAR or SleepHQ data here to get guidance and advice. Absolutely. If so, what is the safest (data safety-wise) and most effective way to post my sleep data with everyone to get guidance and advice? What software is the best for sharing my sleep data to help ge...

Re: Refurbish or buy new?
I’m talking about refurbishing the one I have, rather than buying a refurbished one. Probably $400 vs $1000 Check out the refurbished and open-box machines at https://www.secondwindcpap.com/#09e4/fullscreen/m=and&q=airsense+10+autoset. They are a reputable supplier. Sometimes, great deals can be fo...

Re: Refurbish or buy new?
I have the Resmed Autosense 10. I just got the end of life message. Is it better to get it refurbished with a new motor by an authorized repair center, or buy a new one? I’d like to save money, but at the same time, don’t want something that will break. What's your insurance situation? What's the d...

Re: Very unhappy morning
The AHI has been high in those early hours 1.7 That's not high. What's the breakdown? AHI, CA, H? 10mgs melatonin I would get rid of that. I take these right before I lie down. Do you think it's the timing causing the insomnia? If the gabapentin is helping you to sleep, it takes about an hour to ki...

Re: Lots has happed with AC11 & Sleeping
As I wrote this last sentence I started to yawn. I started yawning halfway through this. Just kiddin'! I think it's a good idea to taper off Ambien. Be aware that some people don't tolerate melatonin. It causes wild dreaming. Gramps took a very small amount and slept 12 hours. He tried it a few tim...

Re: Can using a CPAP for years open the epiglottis?
Doesn't work on my Windows laptop.
Holding CTRL and pressing the plus (+) key does. Press it until the text is as large as you want.
Holding control and pressing the minus key will make it smaller.

Re: Using ice for cold air?
While it's true that cold air is more dense than hot air (and carries more O2) by the time this 'cool air' reaches your lungs, it's no longer cool and any additional O2 is no longer additional. You can do as you like of course but, in my opinion, there's no benefits to what you're doing. This is tr...
