I gave up around a year ago. What I do now is save a new file every 4-5 days. This way I have night data for every night. If you find out a better way, please let me know. From a software development point of view, this is very ugly.

I take it that you do not have the software. Are you viewing the display, or have you connected a printer?

So far, just Plavix for a year, and 325mg enteric coated aspirin for life. I am curious to see the bill from the hospital. In addition, to my displeasure, I have also been prescribed Lipitor. I do not believe in indiscriminate use of statin drugs, (my cholesterol is 170) however I completely trust m...

Thanks Lori for the good wishes. The further adventures of the hospital and CPAP: On about four separate occasions throughout the admissions process, I informed the person I was dealing with that I had sleep apnea and required a cpap machine. When it became close to bedtime the first night I mention...

Just had angioplasty with 2 stents

Hi everyone, I just got home from the hospital where I received an angioplasty with 2 stents in my circumflex artery. Anyone know of any special issues that I should be aware of regarding my use of cpap? I have been on cpap (and apap) for 8+ years. My experience with the respiratory dept. while in t...

Pad a Cheek

I have tried the PAD A CHEEK cheek protectors, and I am very happy with them. I am using them on a ResMed Activa mask. They make the headgear straps effectively wider, distributing any pressure over a wider area. They also round off the sharp edges of the headgear straps, completely eliminating the ...

I have experienced years of sinus infections prior to cpap and allergies and just plain stuffed nose since. Of course I have become dependent upon afrin several times, but had no trouble breaking that dependency simply by not using for 3 days. Hey, who needs to breathe? So throughout the years (I ha...

Absolutely right! I became so used to 17 that when I woke up in the morning, I couldn't even tell that the unit was on. Strange huh?

Comfort Curve

It seems that that many people have tried to conquer the many difficulties with the Comfort Curve's design. My chief complaint is that there is no "adjustment" in the dimension of the "curve". It seems that this device was designed to the concept of "One size fits one". If one has a larger/wider fac...

Looking for a ResLink

I currently use a Resmed AutoSet Spirit and I am interested in getting a ResLink device for it. If anyone happens to see one available on any message boards or knows someone who wants to sell one, I would greatly appreciate letting me know.

Thanks,

In response to the original post... I use the ResMed Spirit with the 2i humidifier. I have tried many different humidifiers in the past 6 years, both heated and not heated. The 2i unit impresses me the most of all of them. It is the most cleverly engineered unit, in that every surface can be easily ...
