Re: Help...brand new to everything
Yesterday, I woke up pretty early and pulled the mask off. This morning I didn't wake up (that I know of) until just before I turned the machine off and actually feel like I slept better last night. It's early in the day still, but I don't feel as foggy this morning as I did the past few days.

Re: Help...brand new to everything
Oh, and I did wake up with a migraine very early (the pulsating / throbbing brain feeling), I didn't open my eyes though and I managed to fall back to sleep after the throbbing stopped.

Re: Help...brand new to everything
I remember waking up last night whenever I had to move / roll over, so I could move the hose with me lol. I don't remember how many times, or for how long though.

Re: Help...brand new to everything
I'll give the settings a try, I figured out how to get into them the other night so it shouldn't be too hard to change them (and I took pictures of them so I'll know what to change them back to). According to the info, it looks like I slept great last night! I feel tired today, more so than I have i...

Re: Help...brand new to everything
I think I woke up around 6 but fell back to sleep, and then when I woke up again I turned the machine off and took the mask off. Maybe I wasn't fully asleep during that time?

Re: Help...brand new to everything
That is so kind, thank you!! I completely forgot to respond last night to you, I was digging around online and think I figured out a few things. Enough to get some information, anyway! I managed to find an older SD card in my camera bag, so I used that last night in the CPAP and imported the results...

Re: Help...brand new to everything
Hahaha yes, we are snowbirds! Which feels ridiculous at my age to say, but it's technically true. The animals came with us while we had them, now that they're gone it's just the two of us :D I do still have my Mom's to play with, while she is trying some mouth piece from her Dr. I don't want to chan...

Re: Help...brand new to everything
I'm a little worried about what insurance will cover, but that's true for just about anything! It baffles me when a medically trained physician can tell a person they need medical assistance / medication / testing done and an insurance company can decide whether it's necessary enough to pay for. Tha...

Re: Help...brand new to everything
That was so helpful, thank you so much for all of that information! I'm hoping I don't have to do an in-lab study (I only live in this area half the year, and I'm afraid they'll be booked past when I leave) though of course I'll do whatever I need to if there are no other options!

Re: Help...brand new to everything
Oh goodness, I didn't even think to include that info. So the home sleep study had 4 things I wore throughout the night. I had something that went into my nostrils (resembled the tubes used for oxygen), a pulse oximeter on my finger, a strap with a sensor around my chest and another around my waist....

Help...brand new to everything
This is cross-posted on another forum, so I apologize if you're seeing it twice or if that's against the rules :) I'm hoping for some advice before I go back to my Dr. Hi Everyone! I just found this forum and am grateful for folks who might understand what all of this means! The sleep study process,...
