Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

Based on the information provided: 1. Your conclusion that UARS is the cause of your difficulties appears unfounded. Indeed, there isn't any evidence of it at all. 2. Your sleep quality is about 30 times worse than it should be. 3. A sleep log would help to examine overall sleep hygiene (it only ta...

Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

... your help. In order for that to happen, I will need: As previously requested, a description of every OSA-associated surgery you've had; A complete report of every sleep study you've had; A current list of all medications; A 2-week sleep log (AASM has one); The Oscar files; and The broomstick of...

And we wait for Rubicon's thoughts.
I think your observations and additional questions are spot-on.
Please see my latest comment above and click on the links to look at my wave form data. I hear you are good at interpreting wave forms and I could really use your help.
Thanks Rubicon

Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

I was told you were good at interpreting wave forms. Me as a person or the forum members in general? Rubicon is much better at this thing than I am. I just dabble in it and I only barely understand the basics. When I see something like your report my eyes glaze over. I don't normally evaluate flow ...

Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

I’m 99% sure the “unclassified apneas” you’re noticing are just treatment-emergent central apneas, I don't know that I agree or disagree with your thoughts at this time. Some of that mess got flagged when you were obviously not asleep. Do we have any reports with either a much lower PS/EPR (as you ...

Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

Thanks for your input, you were able to help me figure out how to share the links. I've just posted them in a reply above Good job! I'm not a doctor. I wish I was sometimes. I dabble here, hoping I'm helping someone. Your breathing looks like Biot's Respiration. This is a serious condition brought ...

Could you look at the data I’ve just uploaded on SleepHQ? Do I need to send you a link or can you just look up my data on there somehow if I tell you my username? Many thanks Go to the Dashboard page you want to share. Select the three vertical dots at the upper right... choose Share Page. When the...

Load data into SleepHQ. Can't tell much by Oscar screenshots.
Please see my reply to Pugsy above. I've just shared the Sleep HQ links there

Re: Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

You have to make a public link to your report at SleepHQ and post it here so that the members can then access your report. We have no way to look it up. I've finally gathered the energy to figure out Sleep HQ. Here are links to 3 different nights below. I would appreciate any advice, please elabora...

Please interpret my flow limitations - UARS is debilitating

Can someone please help me interpret my Oscar waveforms? If you could help figure out what anatomical site of collapse is likely causing them, and/or what BIPAP settings to use to treat them, I'd be grateful. What I'm about to say is super confusing, so prepare yourself. I have UARS, and am using a ...

Why can't I attach files to my post?

Hi, I've just joined and written out a long post with questions about my BIPAP, only to find out I can't attach the necessary photos of my Oscar waveforms. Apparently I can't attach files yet because I'm a new user (only created my account today). The FAQ page said to contact the board admins to req...
