Maybe I'm missing something, but why haven't you tried side sleeping yet?

I do at times, Julie....I go from being on my back to sometimes being on my side...but it doesn't mean anything without some type of test to see if my apnea events are less or my O2 changes...hence the title of my post.

Not everyone will have significant desats in terms of Oxygen levels enough to earn the OSA diagnosis. There's more to OSA than just oxygen levels. A positive result is fairly straight forward but a negative result doesn't necessarily mean no OSA. thank you, Pugsy. You have been a great resource to ...

Is there a testing device one can purchase to check to see if they have sleep apnea without having a sleep study test performed by a medical sleep specialist? I have been diagnosed with severe sleep apnea and I sleep with a BIPAP machine. I mostly sleep on my back. I want to test myself without my B...

Has anyone had success decreasing their apnic events by learning to sleep on their sides instead of their backs?

If so, how did you teach yourself to stay on your side throughout the night?

Thank you.

Hello smart people.
I want to bicycle tour this summer and camp out. I use a BIPAP machine.
Can someone please instruct me in how to make this work?
I am a technological dunce.
What is a battery possibility?
Thank you in advance.

The air intake does not either go through or across the foam. The foam is strictly for sound proofing and rests on the bottom of the machine at least an inch or more from the intake channel. I took my oldest (2010) machine apart. I disagree with your assessment. The foam is the floor of the air pat...

Your photos show the air output, not the intake.

My photos showed the intake, which goes over foam along the entire pathway.

yes...I believe you are right about my photos being of the output and not the intake...my bad
thanks for setting me straight

never mind
have a nice day

In the next few days I will take my own Phillips System One apart and take photos to examine whether or not the foam is directly involved with the air-intake. I will upload the photos. also, in reply to the last few replies to my comments: the foam does not "surround" the intake channel...it blanke...

I'm afraid I don't know what a 560P is...but I own a phillips system one (which is recalled) and that is what the video I posted the link to shows....in that video the intake channle goes straight from the motor to the outside of the unit I suppose that if the seals were faulty that the intake could...

I just watched this video for the 5th time About how to remove the foam from the Phillips System One https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQnJAF3bm98 around 7 minutes into the video is the important info on the Phillips System One...the air does not pass through or over the sound dampening foam. The air ...

will someone please watch this video by an australian fellow taking apart a Phillips system one to pull out the foam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SQnJAF3bm98 you can fast-forward to minute 7 to see the actual foam and where it resides in the machine The foam is only in the casing and does not in...
