Re: OT: virus test shortage
True, knowing or not knowing will make little difference to most affected individuals, especially in mild cases, Identifying cases is not best used for trrearment, it's to limit *spread*. Identifying people who have it with a mild case or before symptoms present that are spreading it around. This m...

Re: Cpap treatment
The machine can only report the events that slipped by. Not what it prevented.
I assume your machine is only straight pressure. Is there any chance it can be set to auto range? It looks like you need more pressure. And we can't tell if it is certain parts of the night or all night long.

Re: OSCAR Suggestions & Bug reporting
I finally found a setting that changed the graphs, and they look right now. Still in the order I wanted. I also got the link to ResScan 5.9. The 6.0 version I had requires a login, so I was able to look at my data. Still haven't figured out what is going on. I used a different mask last night (same...

Re: Oscar doing weird stuff as the mouse moves around
I have a screen shot showing what the graphs look like. I was trying to rearrange the order, but now I can't do anything. I have rebooted the computer. No change. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. Same problem. I was going to use ResScan, but that is now asking for a password. I don't remember do...

Re: OSCAR Suggestions & Bug reporting
I have used oscar awhile back, but this time it is not letting me see the graphs. I was trying to arrange them into the right order, and now it does crazy things as I move the mouse around. On short occasions, it will show the graphs in the regular way, but as soon as I move the mouse, it goes back ...

Oscar doing weird stuff as the mouse moves around
I've used Oscar before, but not recently as I rarely need to check my data. I tried to use it last night, but as I move the mouse around, the screen keeps changing. The graphs are all negative (black screen, white lines, no text). I can't see any of the info. I am not pushing any buttons, so it shou...

Re: OT: Can one get a kinin cough from cold med?
You might also consider if you have had any new chemicals or anything that may be causing an allergic reaction. back in 2012, less than a month after stating cpap, I got a bad cough. My doctor changed my meds, still had a cough. I deep cleaned my machine, mask, hose; and I still had the cough. It we...

Re: Sleep study, sleep apnea and CPAP question
I am confused by the description of your sleep study. It sounds like a titration, not a diagnosis. Did they did part of a night or a whole night withOUT the cpap, to see what your sleep is like normally? That should have been done before using the cpap. And then, they should be starting off with it ...

Re: Full Face Mask...
Do yo mean a range of 9-16, or do you mean that it starts at 9 and ramps to a straight pressure of 16 within a short time? What size mask do you need? I think I have a medium mask, but I am currently on a road trip and won't be home for 2 weeks. It starts at 9 then after 30 minutes goes right to 16...

Re: Full Face Mask...
My ResMed S10 was taken back by my DME after I lost my insurance awhile ago because my old insurance company refused to pay it off. I now have a ResMed S8 that is not data capable. The presure is set to start at 9 and ramp to 16. Do yo mean a range of 9-16, or do you mean that it starts at 9 and ra...

Re: Just got my new AirFit F30i
Most of us have found that we feel better with an ahi below 2. If I had a 4.3, I would be wondering what the heck went wrong. I had a few nights above 1.5 during my first month, and maybe a few in the 1.5-2 range in the last 8 years. But usually, my ahi is between 0.2 and 1.4. If I were to get an a...

Re: Just got my new AirFit F30i
BTW, for some who were worried about me changing my max setting from 12 to 11 and from manual to autosense, I got a call from my doctor's office last night. They were going to send me to the DME for exactly those settings, so all is well. https://i.ibb.co/7k9m8b5/myair-cpap.jpg Keep in mind that do...

Re: Not adjusting
Welcome! You will get more responses soon. But, just a quick glance at your graphs shows that your machie wants to go higher than 12, and it can't. Also, since it starts at 6, it takes awhile to get up to 12 (or higher), so it can't do as well as it could. Also, you may feel more comfortable startin...
