Re: Central Apneas after Turbinate Surgery Cont'd

Hi Pugsy,

Last night, I lowered my max IPAP to 15.4 and I slept 7:32 hours last night with one bathroom break and only 3.4 events per hour!

I will leave the settings as they are and see what results tonight brings.

Thanks,

Re: Central Apneas after Turbinate Surgery Cont'd

Re: Central Apneas after Turbinate Surgery

Hi Pugsy, Thanks for the quick reply! Good to hear about RestedGal. She was a lifesaver for me back then. I have bad insomnia from all the years of waking up for no apparent reason, I had the turbinate surgery because of breathing restrictions in my nose. I am on metoprolol and Armour thyroid and Om...

Re: Central Apneas after Turbinate Surgery

Hi Pugsy,
I can't upload a PDF file. How do I export the Oscar report to a format that I can upload to Cpaptalk?

Thanks,

It can take over 6 month to make up for the being run down by apnea, that's is being fully compliant all sleeping hours. Also the sleeping pills could have a effect, despite the ads, we all know they aren't good for you. If you go off, cut the pills again in half, back off slowly. Jim Nice numbers ...

Thanks Neverbetter!

I am still waffling about my decision, but I think I would
like to try a less intrusive plain nasal mask.
