If it ain't broke...don't worry about trying to fix it. Some people just do better with fixed cpap mode for any number of reasons and that's just fine. Glad to hear you actually slept better and reaping the rewards. Crossing my fingers that it holds for you. Fixed cpap mode was on my list of things...

Hey All! First, thank you again for contributing so thoroughly and helping me to examine this problem. I have some kind of exciting news (well, if you find this stuff exciting anyway.) I converted back to the Resmed Airsense per the suggestions on the board. Somehow in my haste and brain fog; I had ...

What (if anything) have you ever done to try to improve on sleep quality itself? Medications? Stricter sleep hygiene routine? We can't glean sleep stages from the data we have available but with the number and duration of those arousals....I am betting that you aren't getting a nice normal mix of t...

This is the only other piece of information that I see in my file. No graphs. Actually that does help a lot....it mentions RERAs which are Respiratory Event Related Arousals and there weren't any. Would have been nice if they had also mentioned spontaneous arousals but they didn't. If you ever do g...

There won't be any useful graphs on the ResMed machine since you didn't have a SD card in it. The machine only stores the limited summary data and it's the graphs we need. Probably going to ask you to use it again....not what you wanted to hear but will talk about that later. That's not a concern -...

Do you have anything else with that sleep study report? I can't find any mention of arousals of any kind and that's the one thing I really wanted to see... and how in the hell do they come up with pulse ox exceeding 100%?????? Do you have anything else like some graphs or something that mentions ar...

So Dec 9 was essentially a repeat of Dec 8 except not so many sessions but still a truckload of FLs and arousals. First session on the 9th....I stopped counting at 40 episodes of some sort of arousal breathing evidence. Some brief and some quite prolonged which made it hard to count but I tried to ...

Last night Dec 9....one obvious break in therapy. Did you sleep better last night? Feel any better at all? Off to zoom in on stuff. Last night was average nights rest for me. I remember waking up and checking the time and taking a while (but not hours) to fall back asleep - some mild dreaming and f...

Link to the original results from in-lab study: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s8eyeo7rng2c2sy/Miller%2C%20Lindsay-1%20Comprehensive%20Sleep.pdf?dl=0 Hopefully I removed enough identifiers so I don't dox myself! Should be noted: I no longer wake up frequently having to urinate; some of the basic OSA symp...

I hope tweaking your settings will help you. Because you might be affected by apnea or UARS plus something else, I just want to mention two areas you might want to explore with your doctor, if you haven't already: POTS, and autoimmune disease. Both have fatigue after exertion as symptoms. Thank you...

Are you experiencing any nasal congestion at night? The last two nights; actually yes a little. (mild cold symptoms) But in general - no. I had turbinate reduction / deviated septum surgery done a few months prior to getting my first APAP. That said - it is probably time to see the ENT again for a ...

Oh....you said you got a ResMed machine???? The AirSense 10....which model and what about it made you not a fan? Do we have any OSCAR data from using that machine and when was it you last tried it? Yep, I have a ResMed Airsense 10. I just recently stopped using it w/in the last 2 months when I rece...

Can you also get me a screenshot of your OSCAR statistics page? Make sure that the "changes to device settings" section down at the bottom is included. Switching to Dropbox for clarity. here are the OSCAR statistics: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ldf5o8a0bo2c7vv/CPAP%20STATS.png?dl=0 I can pull the Res...

Pugsy is giving some great help here, as per usual. Curious, have you ever looked into a UARS possibility here? Your AHI doesn't seem to indicate serious issues with obstructive sleep apnea, yet your description of how you feel sounds decidedly untreated. Of course, PAP cannot fix everything, and h...

Keep trying with SleepHQ....I need to see the flow rate zoomed in a lot...if you can't get it to work there is another alternative but it involves your getting your entire SD card contents to me so I can plug it in to OSCAR and look at a lot more stuff than you could maybe try giving us screen shot...
